Aggeneys
Aggeneys is a mining town established in 1976 on a farm of that name, situated between Pofadder and Springbok in the Northern Cape, South Africa. ==Origin of the name==
It has been stated that "no-one is quite certain of the origin of the name Aggeneys".〔Nienaber, G.S., & Raper, P.E. 1977. ''Toponymica Hottentotica''. SA Naamkundesentrum RGN Naamkudesreeks 6, p 173.〕 Derived from the Nama language, suggested meanings include 'Place of Blood', ‘Place of Red Clay’ or 'Place of Reeds'. One author favours the last of these: the Nama word ‡''a'' means 'reed' while !''keis'' means 'place'.〔Burger, C.R. 1986. ’N ondersoek na die oorsprong en betekenis van plek- en plaasname in die Landdrosdistrik Namakwaland. Universiteit Stellenbos.〕
