We do not find the name back on eg. The SWA Series 1968 Skin 2616 Bethin. Actually, it was the fountain of interest to Von Francois. The element cana - is also here as Nama ǀǀ Gana- = camel thorn tree, the -ka-is like Nama -Xa- = abundance, many, the 'place (-s) with many (-ka) Acacia Giraffe (ǀǀ Gana) '.

Ons vind die naam nie terug op bv. die SWA-reeks 1968 vel 2616 Betha- nien nie. Eintlik was dit vir Von Francois die fontein wat van belang was. Die element Kana- is ook hier wel soos Nama ǀǀgana- = kameeldoring- boom, die -ka-is soos Nama -xa- = oorvloed aan, baie, die 'Plek ( -s) met baie (-ka-) Acacia giraffae (ǀǀgana-)'.
