History:
There was a priest who had a trained dog that used to roam around during the day when hot. One day the dog arrived and was totally wet. At first the priest didn’t pay so much attention to the hog because he thought the dog was probably trying to cool himself. The incident was repeated again and again. The priest became quiet curious because he did not know of any river nearby. He tried to trace where the dog was going until he was able to trace it. The dog was going at a place not too far away where there is a big tank full o water. From that time, the priest called place “Tanqui” which means full o water.
