afr Sensuskaart 1891 M3/1718 'Zwartbank or Tk.Nu Tc. ǃAoop'.

eng The place lies on the census card north of Port Nolloth, above Holgat river. On the topographical series 1974 sheet 2816 Alexander Bay comes about north of 'Zwartbank', spelled 'Swartbank', before a bowl of 'Rooibank', north-northwest of Swartbank and closer to it is another 'Witbank'. Black bank is apparently translated from the old inland name that was still known in 1891, and the other two, Rooibbank and the strong opposing Witbank, are undoubtedly like translated names. Now, the first member of the recorded name, is like Nama = black, and the second element TC. Laoop is like Namaǃ hau-b = 'Fels-Wasserbank' (Kr.- R. 1969 NW 170); cfg. Furthermore about second component Awanghaus, but above the exit is not - it locates a mountain / head (pie), then the preference is the ml. EKV. -b (-p).

afr Die plek le op die Sensuskaart ten Noorde van Port Nolloth, bokant Holgats- rivier. Op die Topografiese reeks 1974 vel 2816 Alexander Bay kom ongeveer noord van 'Zwartbank', hierop gespel 'Swartbank', voor ’n bakenkop 'Rooibank', noordnoordwestelik van Swartbank en nader daaraan is nog ’n 'Witbank'. Swartbank is klaarblyklik vertaal uit die ou inlandse naam wat in 1891 nog bekend was, en die ander twee, Rooibank en die sterk teenstellende Witbank, is ongetwyfeld eweneens vertaalde name. Nu-, die eerste lid van die opgetekende naam, is soos Nama = swart, en die tweede element Tc. laoop is soos Nama ǃhau-b = 'Fels-wasserbank' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 170); vgl. verder oor tweede komponent AWANGHAUS, maar hierbo is die uitgang nie -s nie, dit lokativeer ’n berg/kop(pie), dan is die voorkeur die ml. ekv. -b (-p).
