Surveying 1950 'Kudungrivier, starting 29 miles [47 km] northeast of Karasburg and flows in a southern direction. Old name, from Nama, for a dry Sand River that flows over farms, it starts at Namkoes, a pan on shiny eye, and joins the Ham River. Means the 'flush of animals'. ' Infill is Constable PPJ Kruger. [In another hand entered in red ink:] 'Kuhdung-r. = River with currics of cows. H. Vedder '.

Opmeting 1950 'Kudungrivier, begin 29 myl [47 km] noordoos van Karas- burg en vloei in ’n suidelike rigting. Ou naam, uit Nama, vir ’n droë sandrivier wat oor plase vloei, dit begin by Namkoes, ’n pan op Blink- oog, en sluit aan by die Hamrivier. Beteken die ‘Wegspoel van diere’.' Invuller is konstabel PPJ Kruger. [In 'n ander hand in rooi ink ingeskryf:] 'Kuhdung-R. = Rivier met ekskremente van koeie. H. Vedder'.

Hier is dan nog 'n tweede, nou totaal afwykende verklaring as die van dr Vedder. Vgl. KUDUNG in TH A** 794-5 en GEIDOM, GEIDUM in hierdie deel. Vir horn is Kudung nou nie meer Nama nie, maar Duits (Kuh = koei; en Diing- = mis).
