I know little of early classical history of what is now South Africa during the 5th century BC, the 4th century BC, the 3rd century BC, the 2nd century BC, or the 1st century BC. For late classical times, I also know little of what is now South African in the 1st century CE, the 2nd century CE, the 3rd century CE, the 4th century CE, or the 5th century CE. For early medieval times, I lack information on peoples of South Africa in the 6th century, 7th century 8th century, 9th century, and 10th century. In Late medieval times, I lack information on South Africa and Mozambique. I also do not yet have details of the 11th century, 12th century, 13th century, 14th century, or 15th century.
