Naragas
The -ga- is possible like Nama -Xa- = rich in, viz. To 'Vyebos', according to Mr Boonzaaier. The 'Vyebos' could not identify us with certainty. Maybe it's like the mouse, cf. Naras, who calls Dr of Vredes there, and who, to us, suspect, a Zygophyllum sp. is. The coordinates are quoted here as of survey, assuming it is the same place.

Die -ga- is moontlik soos Nama -xa- = ryk aan, nl. aan 'vyebos', volgens aangifte van mnr Boonzaaier. Die 'vyebos' kon ons nie met sekerheid iden- tifiseer nie. Miskien is dit soos die muisvy, vgl. NARAS, wat dr Van Vreeden daar noem, en wat, na ons vermoed, 'n Zygophyllum sp. is. Die koördinate is hier soos van Opmeting aangehaal, in die veronderstelling dat dit dieselfde plek is.
