Etymology

Sego is the name of a small Utah town and a helpful way to remember it is to think of the sego lily, a native flower and Utah's 'state flower' that grows in the region. The town was once a coal-mining settlement and is now a ghost town, so picturing the pale lily among old mine ruins links the name to the place's history.
