Bandelierkop is a village some 35 km south-west of Louis Trichardt, on the route from Polokwane to Beit Bridge. Afrikaans for 'bandolier hill"; said to have been named after an incident in which a burgher, Jan du Preez, was sent back to fetch the bandolier he had left behind when the commando struck camp.[1]
