Name

[edit]

Butano as a name has been applied to land grants, creeks, falls, ridges and forests. The earliest mention is by Padre Jaime Escudet in 1816. Abutano is what early Californians called a drinking cup made from horn of a bull or other animal. A Native American origin is possible.[4] It has been suggested that the word might mean "meeting place".
