Two Truths and a Lie

Two of these are true. One we made up. Tap the lie.

1. 1

   Crixás takes its name from the Crixás Indians, who lived in the region when gold was discovered there.

2. 2

   Crixás was founded in 1812 by Portuguese cattle ranchers, and its name means 'river of beef' in a local dialect.

3. 3

   The first explorer in the Crixás area was Manoel Rodrigues Tomar, who arrived in 1726.
