In 1904 the Herero people of South West Africa made their final stand against German Colonial troops in today's Namibia. The battle marked the beginning of what has been called the first genocide of the 20th Century as tens of thousands were killed, driven into the desert to die and thousands more held in concentration camps. The Nama, another indigenous group suffered the same fate soon after, and the bones of many of them were sent to Germany in a a bizarre and gruesome trade in body parts.
