tried to intervene with a cattle negotiation with the Cochoqua people in May 1659 Doman was publicly beaten. Later that year Doman was blamed by van Riebeeck for the theft of company cattle and the murder of a Dutchman and theft of his firearm. Doman sided with his people in the First Khoikhoi-Dutch War of 1659–1660, urging them to eject the Dutch from the Cape. He offered advice on how to exploit Dutch military weaknesses and led attacks on rainy days when the Dutch gunpowder would be affected. Doman and his guerillas stole many sheep and cattle and burnt crops and homesteads. Though they overran most of the outlying settlements and farms they lacked the means to storm the Dutch fort at the Cape. Doman was wounded by a musketball on 19 July 1659, being paralysed in one arm. This was one of the reasons for the ending of the war. He was allowed to return to the Dutch following peace negotiations in April and May 1660 and resumed his work for them as an interpreter. He died on 11 December 1663, the Dutch governor Zacharias Wagenaer recorded that "none of us will have cause to grieve, as he has been, in many respects, a mischievous and malicious man towards the company". In 2019 the South African National Defence Force's reserve unit 30 Field Workshop was renamed the Doman Field Workshop in his honour. References 1663 deaths Khoikhoi History of Cape Town Interpreters
