- John_Harrison_Clark abstract "John Harrison Clark or Changa-Changa (c. 1860–1927) was an adventurer from the South African Cape who effectively ruled much of what is today southern Zambia from the early 1890s through to 1902. Alone and unassisted, he arrived to the country in about 1887, reputedly as an outlaw, and assembled and trained a private army of Senga natives, which he used to drive off various bands of slave-raiders. He took control of a bloc of territory on the north bank of the Zambezi river called Mashukulumbwe, became known as Chief "Changa-Changa" and, through a series of treaties with local chiefs, gained mineral and labour concessions covering much of the region.Starting in 1897, Clark attempted to secure protection for his holdings from the British South Africa Company. The company took little notice of him. When a local chief, Chintanda, complained to the company in 1899 that Clark had secured his concessions while passing himself off as a company official—and had reportedly been collecting hut tax for at least two years, with no authority to do so—the company resolved to remove him from power, and did so in 1902. Clark then farmed for about two decades, with some success, and moved in the late 1910s to Broken Hill, where he became a prominent local figure, and a partner in the first licensed brewery in Northern Rhodesia. Remaining in Broken Hill for the rest of his life, he died in 1927.".
