High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! ?Khauxa?nas (Khoekhoegowab: passively defend people from an enemy, Afrikaans name Schans Vlakte: sconce valley) is an uninhabited village with an ancient ruined fortress in south-eastern Namibia, east of the Great Karas Mountains. It is the oldest systematically designed and built structure in Namibia, pre-dating all buildings erected by Europeans.

The Orlam Afrikaner tribe left the place in the 1820s but it continued to be inhabited by the Veldschoendragers (?Hawoben) tribe until the mid-19th century.
