Oori

Oori, LIMPOPO, or CROCODILE RIVER, a river of south-eastern Africa, has its sources in the heart of the Transvaal, between Pretoria and Potchefstroom, describes a huge curve to the north, and joins the Indian Ocean a little north of Delagoa Bay. Its course exceeds 800 miles, and it has numerous tributaries, the most important being the Olifant from the right. The Limpopo has been ascended 50 miles by steamboat; but its upper reaches are obstructed by rapids and falls.
