Berlin: Walter de Gruyter. (3-11-013426-8 )〕 is a town in the Western Cape province of South Africa, situated about east of Cape Town, along the banks of the Eerste River. It is the second oldest European settlement in the province, after Cape Town. The town became known as the City of Oaks or ''Eikestad'' in Afrikaans and Dutch due to the large number of oak trees that were planted by its founder, Simon van der Stel, to grace the streets and homesteads.〔(''The Cyclopædia; or, Univeal Dictionary of Arts, Sciences, and Literature.'' ) Abraham Rees, 1819. London: Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme & Brown〕 Stellenbosch has its own municipality (incorporating the neighbouring towns of Pniel and Franschhoek), adjoining the metropolitan area of the City of Cape Town. The town is home to Stellenbosch University. Technopark is a modern science park situated on the southern side of the town near the Stellenbosch Golf Course. == Prehistory ==
