ǃGaus
Von Francois gives the location as 26 ° 23 '17 ° 32'. It correlates exactly with the current farm 'Tafelberge' No. 66, eastern Bethanien and west of the Fish River. Rev. Bam's suction consonant for this farm. Consider with its identification as the current Table Mountains, we enter to Namaǃ Gao- = below, and T.O.V. A mountain, the hang or foot (Kr.-r. 1969 NW 9L). The old name Icus, alternating K- and G- (th a * 42) tooǃ Gau-s, apparently in a connection with the table mountains there, and the farm name Table Mountains today may then translate the old name associative.

Von Francois gives the location as 26 ° 23 '17 ° 32'. It correlates exactly with the current farm 'Tafelberge' No. 66, eastern Bethanien and west of the Fish River. Rev. Bam's suction consonant for this farm. Consider with its identification as the current Table Mountains, we enter to Namaǃ Gao- = below, and T.O.V. A mountain, the hang or foot (Kr.-r. 1969 NW 9L). The old name Icus, alternating K- and G- (th a * 42) tooǃ Gau-s, apparently in a connection with the table mountains there, and the farm name Table Mountains today may then translate the old name associative.

Von Francois gee die ligging aan as 26° 23' 17° 32'. Dit korreleer presies met die huidige plaas 'Tafelberge' nr 66, oostelik van Bethanien en weste- lik van die Visrivier. Eerw. Bam se suigkonsonant vir hierdie plaas. tesaam met die identifikasie daarvan as die huidige Tafelberge, voer ons tot Nama ǃgao- = onder, en t.o.v. 'n berg, die hang of voet (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 9l). Die ou naam IKaus, met wisseling van k- en g- (TH A* 42) ook ǃGau-s, staan klaarblyklik in ’n verband met die tafelberge daar, en die plaasnaam Tafelberge van vandag vertaal dan miskien die ou naam assosiatief.
