PRIESKA

(Including Copperton)

On the south bank of the Orange River at the foot of the Doringberg, it was originally named Prieschap, a Khoisan word meaning 'place of the lost she-goat'.
The site of the town, founded in 1882 and renowned for its semiprecious stones, was a fording place used by early travellers.
