Rudiger H 1974 Boer Vraelys 'Tsaobismund, sou eintlik so geskrywe moes word: Tsaobesmund. Plaas ged. 1 85, distrik Karibib, genoem na die rivier Tsaobes. Tsaob beteken 'as' (van houtvure). Dit is 'n groot rivier met oop water. Daar het blykbaar baie Hottentotte op die een en Hereros op die ander kant van die rivier gewoon en dit was verantwoordelik vir die groot hoeveelheid 'as' in die omgewing. Indrukke en gevolgtrekkings deur gesprekke met inboorlinge in hulle eie taal'.
