Hakmana lay north east of Mature on a tributary of the Tangale River. It was a small VOC outpost intended as a support base for the small fort at Katuwana in the interior. Together with the fort at Akurressa, Hakmana was founded to improve and safeguard the link between the coast and the border town of Katuwana.
