The name Tucson originates via Spanish
meaning "Black Base," a reference to the
mostly volcanic mountains on the west side
of the city. The most notable of these
mountains is Sentinel Peak, better known as
"A Mountain" because it sports a large
letter A in honor of the nearby University
of Arizona, situated in west central Tucson.
Tucson is sometimes referred to as "The Old
Pueblo."
