Goaroes
In Nama, Zebra is given up as Igore- (cf. Rest 1960 DNW 75); Possibly we have a varietal ruling of the concept in Damara. The exit (of the VR. Ekv.) It may be that the starting point of the Khoekhoen name was not the head but the drinking or water. Goaroes do not appear on old available maps.

In Nama word sebra opgegee as Igore- (vgl. Rust 1960 DNW 75); moontlik het ons hier ’n wisseluitspraak van die begrip in Damara. Die uitgang -s (van die vr. ekv.) maak dit moontlik dat die beginpunt van die Khoekhoense naam nie die kop was nie, maar die drink- of waterplek. Op ou beskikbare kaarte kom Goaroes nie voor nie.
