Physical appearance.—More Kaffre than Negro; skin more copper-coloured than black; sclerotica clear.
THE PANWES.
Locality.—Eastward to, and more in the interior than the Batangas; from 3° north latitude to 3° south latitude, on the Head-waters of the Gaboon.
THE MPOONGAS.
Locality.—Mouth of the Gaboon.
Then follow the nations of—1. Loango; 2. Congo; 3. Angola; and 4. Benguela; closely allied both in language and appearance, and nations whose place in the Kaffre division has long been recognised.
That there is, however, considerable difference in respect to the physical conformation of the different tribes, is certain; some writers, reducing the native of Portuguese Africa to the Negro, others to the proper Kaffrarian, or South Kaffre, type.
If the difference between these two extremes be rightly estimated by the present writer, the former should prevail along the courses, the latter on the watersheds of the rivers. His information, however, is imperfect upon this point.
2.
SOUTHERN KAFFRES.
Area.—The extra-tropical portion of South Africa, minus the parts south, Walvisch Bay on the west, and the water-system of the Orange River.—Encroaching.
