Map showing the distribution of the three settlements Kaditshwene, Marothodi, and Molokwane and nearby modern towns in the Magaliesberg region, South Africa.
LiDAR image showing the stone walls at Molokwane. High elevation terrain in orange or red, turning to green as elevation decreases.
Viewshed in Marothodi; this map shows the degree of visibility of the kraal vector outline (high, low) from the surrounding dwelling structures and raster surface at the household scalar level. The color blue/green represents a low visibility of the kraal vectors as lines from the dwelling structures, while brown represents a high visibility of the kraal vectors from the dwelling structures, as generated from the Viewshed analysis tool
