They would learn more about their own history. Itsati is what the majority of Creek Indians in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Tennessee called themselves. It means Itsa People, as in the Itza Maya. Chota is the Muskogean word for frog. Putting an "E" sound in front of a Creek or Maya word means that it is especially important. So E-chota would be the principal town of a province named Chota.
