Kafir (or Kaffir) was a (non-derogatory) term used by the British in reference to the Xhosa people and the region of south-eastern Africa.

What came to be known as the 'Aborigines report' documented wide spread frontier violence and had a major impact on the debates about how Aboriginal peoples were to be treated in British colonies. Its focus was on reducing frontier violence through the application of the rule of law and other approaches such as spreading Christianity and prosecuting renegade European whalers, sailors and escaped convicts."
