... that unlike neighboring tribes, the Pastia people of south Texas escaped detection by Spanish explorers until the early 18th century?<Source: The Pastia...became known to Spaniards relatively late, mainly because they lived off of early routes of Spanish travel in Texas>
ALT1:... that in lean times, the indigenous Pastia people of southern Texas, subsisted on worms, insects, lizards, and the undigested nuts retrieved from deer dung?
ALT2:. .. that the Pastia people were first contacted by Spanish explorers in the early eighteenth century, and were extinct as an ethnic group by the middle of the following century? <Source: [from] the early 1500s, only a few hundred years passed before the indigenous peoples of the South Texas Plains had lost almost all ethnic identity and were, effectively, culturally extinct...>
ALT3:... that the Pastia people were one of the three groups present at the 1720 foundation of Mission San José y San Miguel? <Source: ...where they were one of three Indian groups said to have been present when the mission was established in 1720.>
New enough, long enough, well cited (perhaps too much), no image. Passes earwig. Waiting for the QPQ. Tentatively Approving Alt0. --evrik(talk)17:57, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
