why was the area where the Mora and cepillo rivers meet in for The Travelers heading east and west on the Santa Fe Trail what was the area known as

The joining of the Mora and Sapello Rivers and surrounding area became known as La Junta, or the junction. This lush area between the rivers provided both wood and grass for grazing of animals, plentiful water, and a meeting place for caravans heading east on the Trail.

Hope this helps :(
