Guwub
At Bethanien. A bad man died; The Council refuses to give him a place in the 'Friedhof' and a place in the Guukub is assigned him where people were settled in the early years. Name is probably related to Nama iguwu- = round, curvature, cf. Kr. 1969 NW 147, so about 'round', the -B locates an elevation.

By Bethanien. ’n Slegte man is oorlede; die Raad weier om horn ’n plekkie in die ' Friedhof’ te gun en ’n plek in die Guwub word horn toegewys waar mense in die vroeër jare bygelê is. Naam hou waarskynlik verband met Nama Iguwu- = rond, ronding, vgl. Kr.-R. 1969 NW 147, so ongeveer 'Rondekop', die -b lokativeer ’n verhewenheid.
