About the Saliba surname

Saliba people in Colombia ,in the Holy Land,and probably in New Guinea as well, may be
descended from Sha-ya-Ba-La ,from the family of Ake-Laya-Bawa fromm the tribe of A-Wa-Hayat-Daha .

Ake-Laya-Bawa might well have given his name to Bolivia,yet early documented as Para-Bolia .
One of his wives was E'a-Pera-te ,whose sons might have after the land-taking on the Holy Land
of America occupied territories now all called Peru .
Her first born was Ak-Haya-Ra ,whose nam might have been preserved in Chonta-Akhiro ethnonym ,
an alternative for the Piru .
To this family belonged Ar-Ra'awa-Ha ,and A-Wa-Zha-Rag-Ra-'Ala ,who may be the ancestors of some
Araua and Zharaguara tribal people ,likely merged with their relatives of Dani and Dene origin,or possibly
also with the sons of A'ara-Deyen-Na ,whose mother was Ag-Ra-Zaya-Ba-Ha ,another wife of Ak-Alaba ,
that is a woman from Brazil .

A'ak-Hayan-Me-Wa may be the ancestor of Mehinaku ,and A-Wag-Ha-te of Kus-Tenau ,as Tokharians
were also Kushan .
Another man of the family ,E-Wa-Sha-Ma-'A ,appears to be the Amoesha ancestor .
Samoe-Di peoples may also be descended from him .

A'ala-Ha ,father of Ar-Gawata-Ma ,was also a member of the family ,and he may be the ancestor of
Maguta tribe ,that may thus be one of the tribes of the Alans .
They migght have had some family connections in the tribe of Arés ,that is Ar-Ra-'Aya-Ban-Na,the
generic ancestor of Ban-Raya peoples ,the majority of whom speak tonal languages in Asia ,just as
Ticuna is .
There might be people of such origin also among the Arma-Goto ,speaking a Caribic dialect .
The latters' Cacicas though might have got the name of Mag-Aram ,one of the wives of Bayajidda,i
dentifyable with the first Goatman - katsika in Greek - ,Alexander of Makedonia .

Saliba themselves ,believed to be related to Deyarwa ,might well have in ancient times asssociated
with the sons of Ganda ,majority of whom lived also in Asia ,and especially with descendants of the

latter's son,A'ar-Re-ya-De-Wa .

He is the ancestor on male lineage of Votyak people,whose name corresponds to Wodtiha of Venezuela .
Awat-De-Bash-Sha could have assisted at the ethnogenesis of Saliba-Piaroa peoples ,as Udmurts ,
given the neighbourhood and mixture with them ,could be called Ud-Murt-Bashkort .
