Keuna, -(Rivier), Keunas(Kop)

Keuna is the name of farm no gr. Q. 13-54 A name that is also carried by 'Keuna River', a tributary of the Kariega River, and further through 'Keunaskop'. Keunaskop now lies on the farm 'table head' no. 1-17, but Tafelkop is cut off from the earlier greater keuna, so Keunaskop probably (so we believe) laid on Keuna. The spelling was given according to the Topo Cadastral series 1967 sheet 3222 Beaufort West. At later cards, the old established spelling is reported as 'Kunnawater' and 'Ku-Naskop'. On this head is land surveyor No. 39. The statement given above does not convince us. It's hard to believe that the well-known 'ganna' will change without reason to the unknown keuna or kunna.

Description
eng Keuna is the name of farm no gr. Q. 13-54 A name that is also carried by 'Keuna River', a tributary of the Kariega River, and further through 'Keunaskop'.

afr Keuna is die naam van plaas nr GR. Q. 13-54 ’n naam wat gedra word ook deur 'Keunarivier', 'n sytak van die Kariegarivier, en verder nog deur 'Keunaskop'. Keunaskop le nou op die plaas 'Tafel Kop' nr Ab. 1-17, maar Tafelkop is wel afgesny van die vroeër groter Keuna, sodat Keunaskop waarskynlik (so meen ons) op Keuna gelê het. Die spelling is gegee volgens die Topo-kadastrale reeks 1967 vel 3222 Beaufort-Wes. Op later kaarte word die ou gevestigde spelling aangegee as 'Kunnawater' en 'Ku- naskop'. Op hierdie kop is landmetersbaken nr 39. Die verklaring wat hierbo gegee is, oortuig ons glad nie. Dit is moeilik om te glo dat die bekende 'ganna' sonder rede gaan verander na die onbekende keuna of kunna.
