Its name in Hittite language, Hittite is ''palaumnili'', or "of the people of Pala"; Pala (Anatolia), Pala was probably to the northwest of the Hittite core area, so in the northwest of present mainland Turkey. The region was overrun by the Kaskians in the 15th century BC, and the language likely went out of daily use at that time.

Island (Huxley Novel)
''Island'' is a 1962 utopian manifesto and novel by English writer Aldous Huxley, the author's final work before his death in 1963.

''Island'' is Huxley's utopian counterpart to his most famous work, the 1932 dystopian novel ''Brave New World''. The ideas that would become ''Island'' can be seen in a foreword he wrote in 1946 to a new edition of ''Brave New World'': Plot summary Englishman William Asquith "Will" Farnaby deliberately wrecks his boat on the shores of the Kingdom of Pala, an island halfway between Sumatra and the Andaman Islands, thus forcing his entry to this otherwise "forbidden island".
