Ubombo and the site of David Bruce's discovery of Trypanosoma brucei.

The site and remains believed to be those of the camp where Sir David Bruce and his wife Mary worked between 1894 and 1897, and where Bruce discovered the causative agent of nagana and its transmission by the tsetse fly, have recently been discovered at the small village of Ubombo in northern KwaZulu (Zululand), South Africa. The site where these remnants were found fits the meagre, albeit significant, information presented by Bruce in his writings on the location of the camp.
