Oktaha is a town in Muskogee County, Oklahoma, United States.

Oktaha was named for a Muscogee chief, Oktarharsars Harjo[4][5] (also known as Sands[6]).

Local business lagged, however, by mid-century, and the town struggled even more when U.S. Highway 69 was rerouted to bypass Oktaha.

[5] Nevertheless, Oktaha remains the site of a K-12 school that draws several hundred students from rural portions of Muskogee County.

[4] According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 0.3 square miles (0.78 km2), all land.
