The Old Drift Cemetery is a small burial site near the Zambezi river in modern-day Zambia. It includes the graves of early European settlers and visitors to nearby Victoria Falls who died of causes such as malaria and is located in Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. Settlers eventually left the area for higher ground, where the town of Livingstone was formed. A cast-iron plaque on the site reads: THE OLD DRIFT CEMETERY This cemetery forms the last resting place of a number of the early settlers who died at the old drift between the year 1898 and the time of the removal to Livingstone.

- Der Old Drift Cemetery ist eine kleine Grabstätte nahe dem Sambesi-Fluss im heutigen Sambia im Mosi-oa-Tunya-Nationalpark. Er beherbergt die Gräber früher europäischer Siedler und Besucher der nahegelegenen Victoriafälle, die an Krankheiten wie der Malaria starben. Die Siedler gründeten den Ort Old Drift im Bereich der Sümpfe und Wasserfälle, verließen das Gebiet jedoch aufgrund der dort in Massen auftretenden Mücken und der durch diese übertragenden Krankheiten. Sie gründeten schließlich eine Ansiedlung in etwas höherer Lagen, wo sich die heutige Stadt Livingstone bildete. (de)
