In Vereeniging town there is a peace monument concerning the signing of the Treaty in May 1902 that ended the South African War. The camp dead were buried in the town cemetery, in a separate area and with these graves now cleared away. The actual remains of the dead are now beneath the memorial which bears on its sides ‘the names of the dead’, which dates from approximately the 1960s. Some symbolic forms have been provided in their stead at different points in the cemetery, in the shape of stone coffins placed on plinths. There is also an earlier memorial, a rough-hewn stone pyramid shape from the 1930s.
