Die plaas nr 117 le oos van die Rynse sendingstasie op Okombahe en aan die Omaruru. Krenz FK 1979 Boer Aantekening vra of die betekenis nie eerder moet wees 'Er kam und roch', by Nama 'ǃkawa = wittern, riechen (Wasser, Feuchtigkeit)', dieselfde woord met dieselfde betekenis ook by o.a. Rust 1960 DNW 74. Die 'Plek ( -b) waar water geruik (ǃkawa-) word' lyk baie aanneemlik vir 'n vloeiende bekie in hierdie dorre streke met gewoonlik waterlose riviere.
