ǁKhuris

The place no longer comes tea on modern maps. It was southeast located from Gobabis, just above the current Uichenas. Also Kr.-r. L969 NW 256 Give 11khuri-S on 'Scarpricular', next 'The Crabbe, Der Krebs ...' If the indication is correct, the name certainly shows the development of the animal species, and the one or the other. Dr Hahn's record of the Schnalz makes both the statements of the name, the one by Mr Krenz, the other by Mr Boois, much possible.

Description
eng The place no longer comes tea on modern maps. It was southeast located from Gobabis, just above the current Uichenas. Also Kr.-r. L969 NW 256 Give 11khuri-S on 'Scarpricular', next 'The Crabbe, Der Krebs ...' If the indication is correct, the name certainly shows the development of the animal species, and the one or the other. Dr Hahn's record of the Schnalz makes both the statements of the name, the one by Mr Krenz, the other by Mr Boois, much possible.
afr Die plek kom ons nie meer tee op moderne kaarte nie. Dit was suidoos geleë van Gobabis af, net bokant die huidige Uichenas. Ook Kr.-R. l969 NW 256 gee vir 11khuri-s op 'Schildkrote', daarnaas nog 'die Krabbe, der Krebs...' Indien die duiding korrek is, wys die naam stellig op die aanwe- sigheid van die diersoorte, en wel die een of die ander. Dr Hahn se opgawe van die schnalz maak albei die verklarings van die naam, die een deur mnr Krenz, die ander deur mnr Boois, baie moontlik.
