The Origin OF Certain Plantation
Names In Claiborne
County.


The origin of certain plantatio
names in Claiborne county shouI
engage the attention of those wh
become owners by changes 10 th
course of time for their preserva
ton.
Richard T. Archer, who was al
Indian soldier of no mean repute
gave beautiful names to bis an,
relatives places, in "Askamala,
"Anchuca" and "Ittatent" o
"Ittatint."
Before the American civil wa
Hon. w. T. Magruder purchased
Askamala and was thus spelled b.
him. His children use AscamaIa
and Capt. Joseph M. Magrudei
and Mrs. Benjamin Hughes wrot.
it EscamaIa in letters and Bibles
1t is stated that Askamala mean:
"Home or plenty" This trans.
lation is erroneous.
In regard to the Choctaw words
Ascamala, Askamala, or Esca.
mala, and Anchuca, and Ittatent,
or Ittatint, / will first say that b,
IN, and W, are sometimes used 10.
terchangeably by many Choctaws.
The first word is evidently some
what corrupted from ''Uski awuh-
la," "Uskawuhla," literally trans
lated, "canes there split" refer
ring, it would seem, to some place
where canes were split into long
strips to be used in making bas-
kets and sifters. See BYington's
Choctaw Dictionary, page goo,
first line, second column.
Anchuca, better spelled Anchuk-
ka, means "My house, my home. +"
Ittatent or Ittatint. The latter
part of this word is certainly most
grievously corrupted, for no Choc-
taw noun or adjective ends in int
or ent. The first part is certainly
the word. Iti, ga tree" and it
may be that the second part is
tihIa, meaning "marked, bIazed.
Iti tihla, "blazed tree" spot or
locality so named from a bIazed
tree. l am not fully persuaded 10
my own mind as to tihla, bur
Americans do very often most
fearfully comfort Indian names, SO
let HIti tihla" stand until better
solution of tent or tint is found.
l have used hl as the equivalent of
the aspirated in BYlngton's Die
tionary.
Albena, properly spelled Alpi-
pronunciation, means
ga camp, an encampment." This
name was given by James Harmon
in 1899 to bis plantation. 1t is
now owned by Miss Ida Neal, a
descendant of the first Harmon to
settle in Claiborne county.
Pamela comes from the Choctaw
word Ponola. meaning cotton. It
is owned by the Morehead estate,
but christened by Humphreys,
who opened the land.
Collina is from Kalihina, mean
ing "well road or spring road"
Kali, "well, spring, fountain, and
1ina, "road." Kali hins, in rap
dity of speech, Kalina. DR.. John
a pioneer, in 1902 ap-
piled this name to his home, which
IS a possession of the estate of
Capt. A. K. Jones today.
The above was written for the
Reveille by DR.. James F. McCaleb
Of Cold Springs plantation. This
does not complete the list of plan.
tations with Indian names. The
others will appear next week.
