afr Nog Kroenlein, nog Kroenlein-Rust gee die woord in hierdie betekenis aan. Ons vind dit nogtans wel by ou reisigers (k. o.a. DEBE en DEEPKA), vir later tyd by Maingard SAJS 31 117, as ’n Korawoord debe = brak, en by verskil- lendes van ons informante. Die -b is wel lokativerend. Ons verneem dat Dabeb die ou naam van luisental was, luisental is plaas nr 114, reg wes van Outjo, en so het ons onregstreeks hierdie Dabeb se koördinate bepaal.
