About the sorceress !kwarra-an

Lucy Lloyd |xam notebooks

Dia!kwain (David Hoesar) (V)

<i>The Bushman Doctor or Sorcerer (L II.-1. 273-275). An account of these people was also given in the Katkop dialect by Dia!kwáin (L V.-3. 4122-4131), from whom we besides have two reports of cures performed upon himself. The first of these (L V.-3. 4132-4161, 4. 4162-4199) includes a speech made by the sorceress; the second relates how she cured him when injured by a Kafir (L V.-4. 4200-4230).</i>

1) The sorceress's son, ≠gerri-sse (also called ≠girri-sse and Jan Ronebout), was one of Lloyd's informants and Dia!kwain's companions, 2) See also
