Te-ka-jik-ha'-do, place of salt, is Morgan's name for Salina. 



Te-ka'-ne-a-da'-he, lake on a hill, is his name for Tully and its 

 lakes. 



"Te-kanea-ta-heung-ne-ugh — Very high hills, zvith many small 

 lakes, from tvhich water Hows in contrary directions. It implies, 

 also, an excellent hunting ground." Clark applied this to Fabius, 

 Tully, Truxton, etc., but included too much in his definition. For 

 these lakes as a group A. Cusick gave the name of T'ka-ne-a-da- 

 her-neuh, many lakes on a hill. These ponds have several legends, 

 but without relation to the name. 



Te-ka'-wis-to'-ta, tinned dome, is Morgan's name for the village 

 of Lafayette. 



Te-o-ha'-ha-hen'-wha turnpike crossing the valley is his name 

 for Onondaga Valley. Clark gave it as "Teuaheughzua — where the 

 path crosses the road." A. Cusick called it Tu-ha-han'-wah, to the 

 crossing road, i. e. in going from the reservation to the road leading 

 west. 



Te-thir'-o-quen and Tsi-ro-qui were French forms of early names 

 of Oneida lake and outlet, referring to something white. The first 

 name is in the Relation of 1656, but afterward had many variations. 

 On the Jesuit map of 1665 appears Lac Techiroquen. Greenhalgh 

 wrote it Teshiroque in 1677. In 1728 the French spoke of "the 

 Lake of Thecheweguen, or of the Oneidas." 



Teu-nen'-to, at the* cedars, is A. Cusick's name for Cross lake. 

 Others will follow from various sources. 



Te-ungt'-too, residence of the zuise man, is the name of this lake 

 according to Clark. He added : "There is a singular tradition alive, 

 among the Onondagas, respecting an aged and very wise chief, who 

 lived on the eastern shore of this lake many hundred years ago. 

 His name was Hiawatha." Clark first gave this legend in an ex- 

 tended form. Hiawatha was at first an Onondaga chief, but was 

 adopted by the Mohawks, among whom his successors yet rule. 

 Teonto was Schoolcraft's name for this lake. According to the 

 Onondagas in 1752 it was Och-schu-go-re who founded the fishery 

 near the lake.
