Pajalat
The Pajalat were a Native American group who lived in the area just south of San Antonio, Texas, prior to the arrival of the Spanish to the region in the 18th century. Language 
The Pajalat spoke a dialect of the Coahuiltecan language. They spoke the same language as the Tiplacopal and Patumaco peoples. Territory 
At the time of European and African contact, the Pajalat lived between the Frio River and the San Antonio River. The Tiplacopal people shared their territory. A 1727 Spanish map shows the Pajalat and Siquipil live in what is now Goliad County, Texas. 18th-century history 
When Spaniards settled San Antonio, Pajalats moved there and to the Nuestra Señora de la Purísima Concepción de Acuña and San Francisco de la Espada Missions when they were founded in 1731. At Mission Concepción members of the tribe alternated holding gobernador and alcalde offices with Tacame people. Historians have found records of 23 to 82 Pajalats living at Mission Concepción. By 1791, some Pajalat joined the Nuestra Señora del Refugio Mission in present-day Refugio, Texas. Name 
The Pajalat were also called the Cajalate, Pajal, Pajalac, Pajalache, Pajalatam, Pallalat, Paxolot, and many other variations. They are not to be confused with the distinct Pachalaque people. Further reading
