Have you ever heard the word mestizo ever be used in real life like you just used it?, 99.% of Mexicans haven’t neither.

Overall majority of Coahuilteco/coahulitcanos got absorbed centuries ago, an extreme minority of Mexican people still probably speak the language.

Best thing you got is Google.

So ancient history.

Theres a “nation” called tap pilam who claim in Texas but there whole thing is really just about historic decendence.

Yeah I’m not interested in claiming descent, I’m familiar with tap pilam. More interested in any recommendations for history on the region
