From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Original - Khoisan man in Namibia

Well, I've never thought of nominating an image for FP before, but this image has always struck me as an evocative portrait. I just noticed the absurd number of articles in which it appears and it is decent resolution, so was wondering what people think of its chances.

Articles this image appears in
Africa, Black people, Sub-Saharan Africa, Indigenous peoples, Khoisan, Hunter-gatherer, Historical ecology, Haplogroup A (Y-DNA), Survival International, Indigenous and Tribal Populations Convention, 1957, Georgiy Starostin

Given the image page caption: "A San (Bushman) who gave us an exhibition of traditional dress and hunting/foraging behaviour" I assumed it was probably a spear. --jjron (talk) 08:42, 3 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
