In a land dominated by Negro tribes, there are a group of indigent people who have lived in the same area for 20,000 years in the Kalahari Desert of southern Africa, like Botswana, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and Angola. They are called the San Bushman. They are described as short, yellow skin, and have faces similar to Mongoloids. The Bushman are member of a race called Capoids, which include Hottentots and other Khoisan tribes. Bushman's language is a click language, which is belongs to a family called Khoisan. When the first Europeans came to what is now South Africa, they were referred to as "Chinesy" because they looked Chinese people. They had yellow skin, like a Mongoloid.
Today, the reason Bushman have darker skin is because of inter-racial relationships with Negros. There are not much "pure" Bushman left. The "Mitochondrial Eve DNA" in humans has been traced to Bushman. It is possible that Bushman may have lived as far north as Europe. Some of these Negrito tribes in Southeast Asia and in the islands of Andaman and Nicobar Islands are possibly descended from Bushman. It is likely all humans descended from Bushman. Bushman faced a lot of prejudice from Negros and Caucasians. The Bantus have enroached their land and have caused conflict.
