== Toponymy == The name Paiwas in the Chontal language means "Two Rivers," from the words pais (two) and was (river). However, recent studies have argued that this meaning does not correspond to reality, suggesting a more accurate meaning in the Sumo language (a subdivision of Ulua): Pai (sweet potatoes) and was (river), translating to "River of Sweet Potatoes." This interpretation is considered more plausible due to the geographic location of the area.
