History
Tanana Indian name reported as "Toclat River" in 1885 by Lieutenant H. T. Allen, USA, with the translation, "dish water" (1887, p. 85). Lieutenant Allen applied the name to the stream presently known as Kantishna River and the name "Toklat" is relegated to a major tributary of the Kantishna. This is probably the same name spelled "Tutlut" by Ivan Petroff in 1880.
