Abstract
I WISH to give wholehearted support to Mr. B. D. Malan in his use of the term ‘Magosian’ with the qualifying regional prefix ‘South African’ for the industry to which he has applied it. Industries of Magosian culture are now known from Abyssinia and Somaliland in the north, through Kenya, Uganda, and Tanganyika, to the two Rhodesias and then to South Africa.
