Troetroe
The name is fairly constant converted. There is no indication that the name was preceded by a suction consonant. The statements are all relatively recent. Botha thinks of an Afrikaans word 'back' or 'Tru', and Wessels rationalize it further. But the claim to recognition is certainly not strong. Pettman calls him on tradition and finds support in a namaboord Toro for warfare that connects soundly. A third attempt is that of Mossop, which, after it, occurs, the early Dutch name 'Turn' as the translation of the old Khoërhoen name named tower. In the Simon van der Stel, we read 3 Oct. From 'Onze Restplace, the WY Den name Gaven van Troot Weder, Alzoo de Versige Travelers Here Timely Ticked Rest Kneck Kregee'. This resting place, Dr Raven heart in a footnote, is not localized, but it is in the vicinity of the region called. Can we reconcile petrol in the sense of 'return' with the language of the Namas? One might think of ǀǀ Aru, 'Nach Hause, Heimkehren' (Kreenley 1889 Worschatz 25), and then the T- of Twe, from Taroe, to be considered a version of a sucking consonant. It can. Also, the procedure of translation of ancient names is quite normal and strengthens the argument. The troubled question, however, is it: If we can understand a name like 'turning, stopover', well for the whites who came from the Cape, what was there for the inlanders to choose such a name? Too much hanging in the sky. Finally, there is the Dutch name 'De Kuilen River', according to the census card of 1891 the aliasname. The name was apparently not viable. The surveyor said it certainly of the residents. Also, we can not reconcile with something that sounds like 'sweep' and 'pit (s). For more views Read at Raper 1972 Regional Names 59-60, Du Plessis 1973 investigating 323 to pull the wires together: It goes here to the puppy River, also spelled Trollru, an old name of a river in Vredendal in the Olifants River , further the name of a farm 'Trou Troe' No.Q.Q. 7-24 on the river (on a portion of the farm, Vanrhynsdorp was built, just northernly of the river), also of a sideline south-easier of Vredendal and in this district, and finally from a region 'trou-triumph' , 'The plain bordered by the Bokkeveld Mountains on the eastern side' (Raper 59). The question for us is the meaning of the name. Several suggestions were made, as quoted above. We join us at the declarations of 'Baklei River', on the basis of what is in Nama Toro-B = 'Krieg', at Toro = 'Krieg Machen' (Kr.- R. 1969 NW 360). The reason for our lace wheel is based on a particular pattern of pattern that we often encountered. On the northern side of the Olifants River north-west of the village, the farm Le the farm 'Baskely place' No.Q.Q. 1-28, according to spelling and number one of the oldest farms. It must have been a vast farm before his subdivision. No more adjacent but slightly more western and on the southern bank of the Olifants River lies the compitive farms later, now with Afrikaans spelling, the 'Failure Lake A' No. 1900-21-1620, and 'Failure farm B' No 1900-21- 1623, all in the district Vredendal and to the Olifants River. Now we know the main issues of the naming of the Olifants River. The Portugesê mentioned it Rio do infante, the Khoekhoen also Tharakkamma or 'rugged river', the expedition of Danckert 1660 The 'Oliphants River', the name that then became common. We believe that the old name has not only been pussing for the current to its eruption in the Olifants River, but in the early years also from the watering point down to its mouth in the ocean. The name of the farm complex on its shore, viz. 'Basket Place', translate the old name and preserve in Dutch the old name that relates to a fierce battle or fierce battles, the doctrine of the member Toro- is for the intensification of the act (therefore the determining words ' fierce 'and' severely '). 'The river where there is severe'. This connection of the tradition, with the closing name Toro-Toro-, with the river name, with the closing and old translation 'baking place' for the old farm complex on the banks of the Olifants River above Vredendal, making it absolutely sure that The old inland name for the Olifants River of his confluence with the current puppy river to the sea also tumbled. Otherwise, 'baking place' on the banks of the current Olifants River could have been no translations. And then the coincidence is extremely great that the farms at the Olifants River match the translations of the Punk River to his confluence point. With this finished fact, we can recover the old name pattern. See the Olifants River's walk as a long leg of a letter Y over-over, D.W.S. The bottom point is where the river runs into the sea. The long leg is crossed by the short that the tribute is, viz. at Vredendal. It appears, however, that the river beginning in the district of Vanrhynsdorp meet at Vredendal another river, which is now flowing in him (not in the other river) and circle to the Atlantic Ocean, and which bears the name of petrows. Before the whites came, this was the case. Even more, the long leg of the current Olifants River from its origin to where he currently met the current Olifants River at Vredendal, D.W.S. The Olifants River's leg streaming northward north along the coast, was the old Tharakm, the branch of Starsburg and ancient travelers first and from 1660 the whites' name of Olifants River. This new name Olifants River took up the name of Tharakma in him, in the first place, and in the second instance the ledger of the Punk River at the point of confluence at the current Vredendal also equipped for him. He founded imperialistically quite a lot of confusion. The old inland names enable us to throw light on the pre-white period again. In other words, the old puppy river was the current tribute from his source plus the bottom of the current Olifants River from Vredendal to his mouth in the sea. The old Tharakm was the upper of the Olifants River from his source to his confluence with the powling at Vredendal. The current Olifants therefore involves the old Tharakamma plus the downlay of the original pires.
