eng Budack KFR 1979 Ethnologist Report of fieldwork 'Ikhomabes, aǃ Nara field versus 10 -11khaeb (Salt River). I couldn't get any acceptable statement for this place name. Uncle Lukas Bam made the claim that it is a name for 'coarse ground, such as a salt pan, which rages when you walk on it. However, for this I could not obtain any confirmation '
afr Budack KFR 1979 Etnoloog Verslag van veldwerk 'IKhomabes, 'n ǃnara- veld teenoor 10 -11khaeb (Soutrivier). Ek kon geen aanvaarbare verklaring vir hierdie pleknaam kry nie. Oom lukas Bam het die bewering gemaak dat dit 'n naam is vir ‘growwe grond, soos ’n soutpan, wat raas as jy daarop loop’. Hiervoor kon ek egter geen bevestiging verkry nie'
