Northern Province

This province was recently (February 2002) renamed to Limpopo after deliberation by the provincial government. Limpopo is the name of the river bordering the northern reaches of this province. Other notable considerations were Mapungubwe[?], the area where the most ancient gold-using civilisation of the province was discovered a few years ago. The tribe seemed to have strong links to the ruins and civilisation of Great Zimbabwe.
