Little People
The Damaran were also copper-smiths known for their ability to melt copper and used to make ornaments, jewellery, knives and spear heads out of iron.
The Damaran initially settled between Huriǂnaub (Kunene River) and ǃGûǁōb (Kavango River), before entering what later-on centuries long after became known as ǀNaweǃhūb (Ovamboland).
The primary god revered by the Damaran (ǂNūkhoen) people is ǁGamab, also known by various names such as ǁGammāb (the water provider), ǁGauna (in Sān), ǁGaunab (in Khoekhoe), and Haukhoin (meaning 'foreigners' in Khoekhoe), among the Khoekhoe community.
He plays a pivotal role in the natural world, ensuring the seasonal cycle's continuity and providing wild game to the ǃgarob (Khoekhoe for 'wilderness') and the Damaran people.
