Lake Osakis
Lake Osakis is a lake in Todd and Douglas counties in west-central Minnesota. The town of Osakis is situated on the southwest shore of the lake. ==Name== The lake received its English name by translation from the Ojibwe ''Ozaagi-zaaga'igan'', meaning "the Sauk's Lake. The lake is supposed to have received its name due to a historical association with a small group of Sauks who, having been banished from their tribe for murder, made camp on the shores of Lake Osakis. According to Ojibwa oral tradition, these five Sauks were massacred by local Dakota Indians in the late 18th century.〔Upham, Warren (2001) Minnesota Place Names, A Geographical Encyclopedia, Third Edition, p53; MHS Press; ISBN 0-87351-396-7〕
