This sentence is just purely wrong "The first form of life on earth, a bacterial micro fossil Archaeospheroides barbertonis was discovered here and has been identified as being 3.2 billion years old."

==Barberton Prison==

I believe the Barberton which is the subject of this article was near to a prison which was notorious in the apartheid era. It was apparently nicknamed 'Apartheid's Alcatraz';

It was also mentioned in [[Rian Malan]]'s book "My Traitor's Heart."

Barberton Prison

[edit]

I believe the Barberton which is the subject of this article was near to a prison which was notorious in the apartheid era. It was apparently nicknamed 'Apartheid's Alcatraz';

http://www.saflii.org/za/journals/PER/2015/20.html

It was also mentioned in Rian Malan's book "My Traitor's Heart."
