Okay, my "Arizonans sign in" thread seems to have attracted only silence.
How about you Texans? Anyone out there? I've got one legitimate response. (that was me.) Can you do better?
Sign in and tell us about where in Tejas you are from. (Spelling deliberate)
Tejas is the Spanish spelling of a Caddo word taysha, which means "friend" or "ally". In the 17th century the Spanish knew the westernmost Caddo peoples as "the great kingdom of Tejas" and the name lived on to become the name of the 28th state of the United States—Texas.
