Place names are cultural artifacts which tell us much about how people lived, as do the relics dug from the ground. They are historical records which can chart the location and migration of people, both native and European. Names also tells us something about those people we have called Indians, including their cosmic views, their values, their understanding of their place in nature, and their ways of life.
