 Utah was the 45th U.S. State to join the Union: 04-January-1896
The Name: (provided by "Netstate.com") The Navajo Indians were referred to by the Apache as "Yuttahih" meaning "one that is higher up." Europeans misunderstood this term to refer to the tribes living higher in the mountains than the Navajo, the Utes, and the territory was called the land of the Utes, Utah.
