===Native Americans===
[[Paleo-Indians]] ([[hunter-gatherers]]) existed thousands of years ago on the [[Trans-Pecos]], and often did not adapt to culture clashes, European diseases, and colonization. The Masames tribe was exterminated by the Tobosos, ''circa'' 1652.<ref>{{cite web|title=Native Peoples of the Trans-Pecos Mountains and Basins During Early Historic Times |url=http://www.texasbeyondhistory.net/trans-p/peoples/index.html|work=Texas Beyond History|publisher=UT-Austin|access-date=December 12, 2010}}</ref>  The [[Nonojes]] suffered from clashes with the Spanish and merged with the Tobosos. The Spanish made slave raids to the La Junta de los Ríos, committing cruelties against the native population.<ref>{{cite web|title=Jumano-Spanish Relations|url=http://www.texasbeyondhistory.net/trans-p/peoples/jumano.html|work=Texas Beyond History|publisher=UT-Austin|access-date=December 12, 2010}}</ref>  The [[Suma-Jumano]] tribe sought to align themselves with the Spanish for survival. The tribe later merged with the [[Apache]] people. Foraging peoples who did not survive the 18th century include the Chisos, Mansos, Jumanos, Conchos, [[Julimes people|Julimes]], Cibolos, Tobosos, Sumas, [[Cholomes]], Caguates, Nonojes, Cocoyames, and Acoclames.<ref>{{cite web|title=Foraging Peoples: Chisos and Mansos |url=http://www.texasbeyondhistory.net/trans-p/peoples/foragers.html|work=Texas Beyond History|publisher=UT-Austin|access-date=December 12, 2010}}</ref>
