Little Egypt is the nickname given by early white settlers to the southernmost tip of Illinois. There the Ohio and the Mississippi Rivers join and form a land area that reminded settlers of the Nile delta Cairo, Egypt. They named the town they built there Cario, but pronounced it differently: "KAY-row."
