Pastor Rust was located on Gochas, and Haruchas is just south of it. Igwash does not occur in this form and in this area on older cards, it is obviously a water location (indicated by the Fern . Perhaps the name refers to the appearance of the Guwa or Gowaboom there, the Moringa Ovalifolie. Cfg. Wiss HJ 1977 Bota- Nische Mitt 92 and Gobas (mountain) for more details.

Pastor Rust was located on Gochas, and Haruchas is just south of it. Igwash does not occur in this form and in this area on older cards, it is obviously a water location (indicated by the Fern .

Pastor Rust was op Gochas gevestig, en Haruchas is net suid daarvan. IGuwas kom nie in hierdie vorm en in hierdie omgewing op ouer kaarte voor nie, dit is klaarblyklik 'n waterplek (aangedui deur die fern. sing, -s) in die nabyheid van die Auob waar die agtervolgdes vir hulle tussen die duine skuil gehou het. Moontlik verwys die naam na die voorkoms van die guwa- of gowaboom daar, die Moringa ovalifolie. Vgl. Wiss HJ 1977 Bota- nische Mitt 92 en GOBAS(BERG) vir meer besonderhede.
