Pakawa (from Pakatvai, referring to 

 tattooing. — Gatschet). Specifically a di- 

 vision of the Coahuiltecan family living 

 not far from San Antonio r., Texas, in 

 the 18th century. Espinosa says that 

 when the missions were removed from 

 E. Texas to this river in 1730-31 there 

 were "in sight three tribes of very docile 

 gentile Indians, the Pacaos, Pajalat, and 

 Pitalaque, who together number more 

 than a thousand persons" (Chronica 

 Apostolica, I, 459, 1746). Some of them 

 entered San Francisco de la Espada mis- 

 sion with the Axcahomos, but deserted 

 in 1737 (Ysasmendi to the Governor, 

 Nov. 22, 1737, MS.). In 1738 Pedro, a 

 "Pachao," was "governor" of this mis- 

 sion (MS. of 1738 in the Archivo Gen- 

 eral). Some of the tribe were also at 

 Concepcion, according to manuscript rec- 

 ords of the mission, and " Pacuas" were 

 also at San Bernardo mission, on the Rio 

 Grande (Morfi, Viage de Indios, 442, 

 1856). ■ (h. e. B.) 



Generically the term Pakawa has been 

 applied by Gatschet to include a linguis- 

 tic family formerly living on both sides of 

 the lower Rio Grande, and practically 

 identical with the Coahuiltecan family 

 (q. v.). Its numerous dialects, accord- 

 ing to Gatschet, were spoken in the w. 

 as far as the Sierra Madre and in the e. 

 to or beyond San Antonio r. One dialect 

 of it is preserved in the Manual of Padre 

 Bartholome Garci'a (1760). The tribe 

 to which the name Pakawa appears to 

 apply is that mentioned as th^ Pintos 

 (Span, 'i^ainted' or 'tattooed'), Pacaos, 

 or Pacuas, etc., their name in their own 

 language, according to Gat'^chet, being 

 Estok-pakawaila or Newasol-pakawai or, 

 without the prefix, Pakawai or Paka- 

 waila. The only .survivors of the tribe in 

 1886 were two women who were found 

 bv Gatschet on the s. bank of the Rio
