The name, according to legend, derives from the Cherokee word "Ta'ligwu" meaning "just two," or "two is enough." The "two" refers to a meeting between elders that presumably took place shortly after the Trail of Tears. Three tribal elders had planned to meet to determine the location of the Cherokee Nation's permanent capital. Two elders arrived and waited for the third. As dusk approached, they decided that "two is enough." A more likely origin for the name is that it is named for an ancient eastern Cherokee town named Tellico which is an anglonized version of the word tel-i-quah which is interpreted as "plains".According to James Mooney in his book "Myths of the Cherokees", Tahlequah, Tellico, and Telliquo are variant spellings of the Cherokee word "Talikwa", the meaning of which, he writes, is lost.Tahlequah is home to Northeastern State University, The Tsa-La-Gi Ancient Village (a living museum). -- Source: Wikipedia.com
