Paipailer

Paipai (Pai pai, Pa'ipai, Akwa'ala, Yakakwal), Meksika'nın kuzeyindeki Baja California'da yaşayan bir yerli halktır. Geleneksel toprakları güneyde Kiliwa, kuzeyde Kumeyaay ve Cocopa toprakları arasında yer alır ve Pasifik kıyısına yakın San Vicente'den doğuda Colorado Nehri deltasına kadar uzanmaktadır. Günümüzde ağırlıklı olarak Baja California'nın Sierra de Juárez bölgesindeki çok etnikli Santa Catarina topluluğunda yoğunlaşmışlardır.
