I understand that you traveled to the US in the past four weeks and used an eSIM there, now that you are back in South Africa, your SIM doesn't show the network even after you deleted the the US eSIM. This issue is likely not related to your iPhone but could be due to your carrier.
Please get in touch with your carrier, as they may have suspended your plan in South Africa due to non-usage for four months. Carriers sometimes suspend or deactivate plans if they detect that the SIM hasn't been used in the home country for an extended period. Contacting your carrier should help resolve this issue and reactivate your service.
Next time, before leaving your home country, inform your carrier. They may have a process to hold your plan for the period you are away from the country. This can help prevent any disruptions in service when you return.
