Lords with authority
Palatines refers to two different things depending on context.
In anatomy, the palatines are the pair of bones forming the hard palate—the roof of the mouth.
Historically, the Palatines were German Protestant refugees from the Palatinate region who emigrated in the early 18th century, many settling in colonial America: The Palatines established farms along the Hudson Valley.
