Article History

Sibasa, village, Limpopo province, South Africa. It was once the capital of the nonindependent Bantustan of Venda. A station was established there in 1872 by Carl Beuster of the Berlin Mission. The village is an industrial growth centre just northeast of Thohoyandou and about 4 miles (7 km) north of the Luvuvhu River. Located at an elevation of 2,428 feet (740 m) and named after a Venda chief, Tshivhase, Sibasa is 45 miles (72 km) northeast of Louis Trichardt on the main road from Louis Trichardt to Kruger National Park. Besides small local industries, Sibasa has the branch of the Employment Bureau of Africa that recruits mine workers for employment by the South African Chamber of Mines. The village has a technical institute, and the burial ground of the Venda royal family is located nearby.
