3 When the San could not find game, they sometimes stole cattle from the Khoikhoi to get meat. The Khoikhoi began to organise themselves into larger groups to fight against the cattle- raiding San.

These groups are often referred to as Khoisan. (Platinum Social Sciences, 2012, P. Ranby, B. Johannesson, R. Versfeld, M. Slamang, B.)
