Kiamichi River

The Kiamichi River is a river in southeastern Oklahoma. A tributary of the Red River, its headwaters rise on Pine Mountain in the Ouachita Mountains near the Arkansas border. From its source in LeFlore County, Oklahoma it flows approximately 〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed June 3, 2011〕 to its confluence with the Red River south of Hugo, Oklahoma.
==Name source==
The exact origin of the word Kiamichi is a matter of debate and may never be fully known. Most accounts say the word is French for "horned screamer" or "noisy bird," a reference to woodpeckers or other birds living along the river's banks. The spelling of the modern word was not standardized until the twentieth century, making its origin more difficult to determine. The ''Antlers News'', a newspaper published in Antlers, Oklahoma (then Antlers, Indian Territory) first used the spelling, "Kiamichi" in November 1900—prior to this it, along with other authoritative sources, spelled the name of the river as "Kiamichia" or "Kiamitia".〔(George Shirk, ''Oklahoma Place Names'', p. 117; ''Encyclopædia Britannica'', entry for Kiamichi River; ''Antlers News'', November 22, 1900.)〕
