The BaTswana ruins in the Klipriversberg Nature Reserve are of great cultural, historical and archaeological significance. According to enthusiasts on the ground some of the ruins have been dated to the early 1000s. The Southern Suburbs Heritage Society believes that massive opportunities for local tourism exist. The ruins are threatened by increased development in the surrounding areas.
