Los Putos
[edit]I inserted the following at Talk:Putah Creek:
- "The true meaning of "Putah" in Putah Creek has been the subject of discussion and speculation." is nonsense. Rio Los Putos is the earlier name: see map at the Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley; Rio De Los Putos remains an administrative division in Solano County. "Putah" is a modern invention to avoid the demeaning putos: the "traitorous conniving son-of-a-bitchin' cabrónes". see the history of Rancho Los Putos, of which Wikipedia gives the circularity "The Los Putos name comes from the nearby Putah Creek". --Wetman (talk) 00:11, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
- No doubt Rancho Los Putos comes from Rio Los Putos (current name Putah Creek). I think the Putah Creek speculation is about the origin of "Los Putos". Clarified the article.Emargie (talk) 15:21, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
