Why? It's a town "mid" way between the cities of Lot and Hian. You never know
where these crazy towns get their names. We have a couple not far from
Nacogdoches reverse spelled from the name of their founder. They are Sacul
(Lucas spelled backwards) and Reklaw (Walker) spelled backwards.

I've always loathed the name of that city.
