	The White Settlement of Southern Africa 1652 - 1850 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		After this massacre, the whole Great Trek teetered on the brink of disaster: many wanted to give up and return to the comparative safety of the British ruled Cape, while others then turned their attentions further north even deeper into the interior, into what became the Transvaal and Orange Free State.
		There, the first piece of land occupied by Whites there was obtained by treaty from the Bataung tribe, and the town of Winburg was established in this region.
		The remaining men in the Boer camps in Natal then came to the conclusion that the trek should be abandoned: the trepidations they had suffered in Natal had been far worse than anything they had endured during their stay in the Cape Province, the Kaffir Wars included.

		To this end during the remainder of 1838 he made treaties of friendship with local African potentates including Sekwati who ruled the powerful Bapedi tribe.
		Then in June he entered into an arrangement with the Bataung chief Makwana by which for the bargain price of 38 head of cattle he bought the enormous tract of land between the Vet and the Vaal over which the chief asserted a rather dubious sovereignty.
		However implausible this may seem, the transaction at least gave some semblance of legality to Potgieter's claim to have become lord and master of this first large section of the high veld.
