The constituency also is the home of the traditional seat of the Ovaherero Paramount Chief, at the village of Toasis, situated south of Aminuis. In the Herero and Namaqua War of 1904–1907 the village was the location of the "Battle of Toasis" on 17 December 1905. Later Chief Hosea Kutako had his homestead there, and currently a community heroes' acre for Ovaherero and Ovambanderu is planned.
