Limpopo Province

   

Map

Limpopo Province is the northernmost province of South Africa. The province was formerly named the "Northern Province" but the name was formally changed in February 2002 after deliberation by the provincial government. Other notable considerations were Mapungubwe, the area where the most ancient gold-using civilisation of the province was discovered a few years earlier. The tribe seemed to have strong links to the ruins and civilization of Great Zimbabwe.
