Request for permit to excavate at LRC3, Mpumalanga

Previously, I identified the Later Stone Age site named LRC3, among others, as key to understanding the prehistory of precolonial hunter-gatherers, as well as their interactions with others, in Mpumalanga (Maseko 2021). Following from this, my current project seeks to carry out excavations at this site, to establish the site's occupation chronology and tie it to the rest of the region. Based on observation of surface scatters from recent visits, the site potentially contains pre-contact levels, significant for identifying change in the area's archaeological past.

The site is located in central Mpumalanga Province.
