That's Cool.

I read today that there is a region in Peru called Tacna.  It comes from two Quechua words: taka (strike), and na (something to do).  So it literally means "a place to strike at".  How cool is that? 
It apparently comes from many centuries ago when the Quechua people conquered the Ayamaras.
