The member gas is, with reference to what Mr. Arndt is about the topography, well like Nama + Ga-S = (ia) wreath, and the post-remembrance of Nama 11na- = horn, the whole maybe 'Hornkrans' , cf. Nagas 2316. However, Nagas No. 55 lies much more, it is also a young name, so the question comes up or the old name Damakus / Choes has not been replaced by the transfer on him from the other and famous Nagas that today the translated German Name of Hornkrantz doesn't wear.

Die lid -gas is, met verwysing na wat mnr Arndt oor die topografie se, wel soos Nama +ga-s = (o.a.) krans, en die Na- laat dink aan Nama 11Na- = horing, die geheel dan miskien 'Horingkrans', vgl. NAGAS 2316. Nagas nr 55 le egter veel suideliker, dit is ook 'n jong naam, sodat die vraag opkom of die ou naam Damakus/-khoes nie vervang is deur die oordrag op horn van die ander en bekende Nagas wat vandag die vertaalde Duitse naam van Hornkrantz dra nie.
