The history of Oklahoma is inextricably linked with Native Americans, with its very name being derived from the language of the Choctaw tribe. When the Native Americans were forcibly removed from their ancestral homelands in the 19th century, most of them were relocated to the land of present-day Oklahoma. Many new settlements were founded in this period, such as the small city of Tishomingo near the border of the Oklahoma and Texas. Named after a chief of the Chickasaw tribe, the city is nowadays a gateway to plenty of outdoor recreational areas. So check out these top Airbnb vacation rentals if you wish to spend some time exploring the Texoma (Texas and Oklahoma) region!
