About the Páez surname

Paez(a) people in America,the Holy Land ,,and some families of this surname,may be descended
from Ez-Za-Wa-Pa ,son of A-Wa-Helela-'Ala,called also A-Waya-'El-Le,who may also be the ancestor
of Owa-Helelo people in Africa .

He was the son of Ake-Ke-La-Be ,how the Byble calls him,idnetifyable with Héraklés ( Hayawara-Ak-Ke-La )
of Greek myths .
The latter was said to be son either of Zeys ,or of Amphitryón ( Wamphitruewoon ),son of Alkaios son
of Perseys ( Pai-Ra-Se ) ,son of Zeys ; Paisa thus may also be explained from Pai-Se-(R)a or Pai-Ze .

The Byble ,however calles Akkelabe's father WPNH ,that by reading it E-Wap-Pan-Na-Ha ,would rather
correspond to the name of Panopeys ,a co-fighter of Amphitryón .
It is firmly stated in the Greeks' stories that Héraklés was not the son of Amphitryón,but of Zeys -
he might have been that of Panope descending from the family of Ze too .
Another candidat for the ancerstry of the family may be A'as-Sharra,who also had a grandson ,
much earlier than the events around Héraklés ,called Wa-Panna-Ha ,son of E-Wa-Ter-Ra .

In any case Wa-Helela-'Ala had beside Ezza-Wa-Pa a son called A'as-Sharra-'Ala ,who might have
got his name after A'as-Sharra ,a - possibly maternal - ancestor of his ,and aone called Ze-Wa(n)-Pa-Ha-Te-Wa-Rawa'e ,
whose name would correspond to Zeys-Amphitryón ,and so could have been named after him .
According to thius ,they would still have considered Zeys and Amphitryón the same person .
Maybe they themselves did not know exactly who the father of the child was .
