3 mesa
(Sp. model spelled same [mésa] < Latin mensam 'table')1) Northwestern Texas: 1840. A hill or mountain with a flat top or a steep-sided plateau.2) Nebraska: 1927. According to the DARE, this term has a specific meaning in Nebraska; it refers to "a steep gully along a river." The DRAE defines mesa as an extended piece of elevated flat land surrounded by valleys or cliffs. This geographical term, along with a few others such as arroyo and ( box) canyon, is linked in the popular mind with gunslingers, rustlers, sheriffs, ranchers and cowboys, thanks to Hollywood and pulp fiction. In fact, many outlaws hid out in the badlands.
