==History==
The name ''Oktibbeha'' is a Native American word meaning either bloody water (because of a battle fought on the banks) or possibly icy creek. Indian artifacts over 2000 years old have been found near the ancient earthwork mounds adjacent to Indian Mound Campground, just east of Starkville. These have been used to date the construction of the mounds in the Woodland period. The Choctaw people, one of the Five Civilized Tribes of the Southeast, were long occupants of this area prior to European encounter.
Since the late 20th century, Oktibbeha together with Clay and Lowndes counties has been designated as the Golden Triangle in Mississippi. This is based on a goal of collaborative economic development among the three counties and their major jurisdictions. With the growth of Mississippi State University, Starkville is the largest city in the region.
