Numeib(Vlei)
The place lies in the Omatako Omuramba. Laid on other place name relationships with the fig tree in this area, man wonders (in absenteeism of any outside assistance) whether we do not have the Nama word for the fig tree. The ǀ Noma-Hai, contracted to 'Numib' Doesn't seem to translate the inland name.

Die plek le in die Omatako Omuramba. gelêt op ander pleknaamver- bande met die vyeboom in hierdie omgewing, wonder mens (by afwesig- heid van enige buitehulp) of ons hier nie die Namawoord vir die vyeboom het nie. die ǀnoma-hai-, saamgetrek tot 'Numeib'. Dit is dan die vlei waar die vyebome aangetref is. Dit is ’n voorlopige wenk. Op vel 1918 Grootfontein van SWA-reeks 1976 korreleer die vlei met 'Kanovlei'. maar dit lyk nie of dit die inlandse naam vertaal nie.
