Dekar
D'Kar is a village in Ghanzi District of Botswana. It is located 40 km to the east of the district capital, Ghanzi. The population was 943 in 2001 census. It was a farm of the Gereformeerde Church, but then evolved into a rural village after being donated to the Naro. The village is governed by the Dutch Reformed Church that is made up by San leaders in D'Kar, but this village also houses a shop and a garage. A tar road runs 1 km from it, but unfortunately there is no tar road in the village itself, only a gravel road. This small village also houses Kuru, a bushman initiative. It has a shop were handcrafted Bushman articles can be bought. The money is then used to help the little people of the Kalahari. It also owns a game farm which is about 15 to 20 km outside D'Kar, on the road to Ghanzi. This village consists mainly of bushmen. It houses a school and also a clinic.[1]
D'Kar is an antipode to Wahiaw, Hawaii.
