Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
The San people lived in most parts of the Namibian Desert and the Northern Cape mountains. The San people used the Quiver Tree for many things since it was quite common where they lived. One of the common uses was a carrier for their arrows when hunting. Hollowing the quiver tree branch and closing one end with animal skin, was the perfect arrow carrier for the san people. The Quiver Tree has a white powder on the bark, which acts as a sunscreen and protects the tree from the hot desert sun, which the San people also used to protect their skins from sunburn. The core of the Quiver Tree’s trunk is light and corky, and the San people hollow the tree’s bark. The hollow bark is then used to keep things fresh, while the smaller pieces of the stem are used for storing arrows.
