Pabor. A tribe or subtribe, possibly 

 Coahuiltecan, members of which were at 

 San Francisco Solano mission, near the 

 Rio Grande, in 1706-07. They seem to 

 have belonged to the Terocodame (q. v.) 

 band or confederacy, for a Pabor was 

 interpreter for this band at the mission 

 (MS. Baptismal Rec, 1706-07, partidas 

 161, 210, 248, 249, 291, 301). (h. e. b. )

Pac. See Shoe-pack. 



Pacana. A small tribe of unknown af- 

 finity, but probably belonging to the 

 same group as the Alibamu and Koasati, 

 mentioned by Adair in 1775 as one of 

 those incorporated with the Muscogee or 

 Creek confederacy. Their town may have 

 been that known as Pakan-tallahassee 

 (q. V. ), i. e. ' Pacana old town,' on the e. 

 side of Lower Coosa r., Ala. In connec- 

 tion with several other small tribes in 

 the French interest they crossed the Mis- 

 sissippi on the withdrawal of the French 

 from the Alabama region in 1764, and in 

 1805 were described by Sibley as living 

 on Calcasieu r.. La., having then about 

 30 men and speaking a language different 

 from those around them, but using also 

 the Mobilian trade jargon. The various 

 renderings of the name are all guesses, 

 ranging from 'pecan,' 'mayapple,' and 

 'peach orchard,' to 'high,' 'superior,' 

 and 'upper ones.' (.i. m. )

 18th century on the Texas coast between 

 the Nueces and the Rio Grande.

Pachade. A village of Christian Indians 

 near Middleboro, Mass. , in 1703, probably 

 connected with the Wampanoag. — Cotton 

 (1703) in Mass. Hist. Soc. Coll., 3d s., ii, 

 244, 1830. 



Pachal. A tribe, apparently Coahuil- 

 tecan, which in the latter part of the ■17th 

 century ranged on both sides of the Rio 

 Grande below the present Eagle Pass, 

 Texas. Massanet met some of them at 

 rancherias 10 and 6 leagues s. w. of 

 Nueces r. with Quems, Ocana, Chaguan 

 (Siaguan), Pastaluc, and Paac Indians, 

 and at "Rio Hondo", 11 leagues n. e. of 

 the Nueces, with Sanpanal, VAnca, Pay- 

 avdn, Aguapdlam, Samampdc, Patavo 



(Pataguo), Pitahay, Apaysi, and Patsau 

 Indians (Massanet, Diario, 1691, in Mem. 

 de Nueva Espafia, xxvii, 92, 94, MS.). 

 In 1699 Fray Diego de Salazar founded 

 San Juan Bautista mission on Sabinas r. 

 with Pachal and Chaguan (Siaguan), 

 Mescal, and Xarame Indians from near 

 the Sabinas (Portillo, Apuntes para la 

 Historia Antigua de Coahuila y Texas, 

 278-79, 1888). Shortly afterward the 

 mission was reestablished on the Rio 

 Grande near Presidio del Rio Grande, 

 with the same and other tril)es (Morfi, 

 Viagedelndios, 1778, in Doc. Hist. Mex., 

 3d s., IV, 440-41, 1856). In 1703 mem- 

 bers of the tribe were connected with 

 San Bernardo mission (Portillo, op. cit., 

 288 ) . In 1 728 Rivera reported Pachoches 

 (Pachules?), then a fragmentary tribe, at 

 Caldera mission, s. of Sabinas r. (Diario, 

 leg. 2763, 1736). The name Pachal is 

 much like Patzau, but since Massanet 

 mentions both in the same list, they are 

 probably distinct. (h. e. b.)

Pachalaque. A Coahuiltecan tribe at 

 Nuestra Seiiora de la Purfsima Concep- 

 cion de Acuna mission, Texas, in the 

 18th century. That these people be- 

 longed to the Coahuiltecan family is evi- 

 denced not only by the form of the name 

 and the fact that members thereof were 

 taken to the mission with tribes unques- 

 tionably Coahuiltecan, but by more direct 

 testimony. A missionary, in doubt, re- 

 corded one convert as either ' ' Pachalaque 

 or Orejona" (Librode Casamientos, par- 

 tida 62, MS. ). Both of these tribes were 

 well known at the mission, and must 

 have spoken the same language, or this 

 doubt would not have arisen. That the 

 Orejones were Coahuiltecan is proved by 

 the fact that they are contained in the 

 Garcia list of 1760 as among the tribes 

 speaking that language. That the Pacha- 

 laque were distinct from the Pajalat is 

 also clear, for they are frequently dis- 

 tinguished on the same page of the records 

 by a single missionary, and even in a 

 single entry one party to a marriage is 

 entered as a Pajalat and the other a 

 Pachalaque (Libro de Casamientos, par- 

 tidas 1-62, MS. ) . That they were distinct 

 from the Pastaluc (q. v.) is not so cer- 

 tain. They entered Nuestra Senora de la 

 Purfsima Concepcion de Acuna mission 

 as early as 1733 with the Pajalat, Tilpa- 

 copal, Patumaco, Patalca, Tiloja, Siquipil, 

 and Xarame tribes (ibid.), and there is 

 evidence that before this time they in- 

 termarried with the Patumaco particu- 

 larly (ibid., partida 2). While at the 

 mission they intermarried most frequently 

 with these and the Tilpacopal. A Pacha-
