Sutherland, Northern Cape


Sutherland is a town with about 2,841 inhabitants in the Northern Cape province of South Africa.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=World Gazetteer )〕 It lies in the western Roggeveld Mountains in the Karoo.
== History ==
Sutherland was founded in 1723 as a church and market town to serve the area's sheep farmers. By 1872 the town had a population of 138 registered citizens living in 19 houses. The large Dutch Reformed church in the centre of Sutherland was built in 1899.
During the Anglo Boer War the church was used as a fort by garrisoned British soldiers. During the war a number of engagements between British and Boer forces occurred in the town. In one such engagement a force of 250 Boer commandos attacked the local British garrison for 10 hours. The ruins of a fort can be found on the outskirts of town -on the hill called Rebelskop- was named after this engagement.
