Early Life

Qjarax del'Coso was born on August 17 1633 on Plantation Cristina, Coso. His father named Antonio Paramilla-Aguilar (1598 - 1649) was a Spanish plantation owner and aristocrat who established the plantation. He emigrated from Spain to have a new live in Ajudige. Qjarax was fed up by his biological mother Saora but his stepmother always told him that she was his mother. His biological mother was Saora Janea Maiao (Spanish enslaved name Sara Isabel Maiao) and was an Ajudigian enslaved woman. She was a housemaid. The mom Qjarax thought his mother was, was Cristina Isabel Fransisca Maria Santos (1604-1676). Qjarax had 4 halfbrothers and 5 halfsisters. When Qjarax was 1 year old his parents already saw he was a different child because he could already speak properly. His parents were amazed because of it. Qjarax was fed up by Ajudigian enslaved people. But when Qjarax was 9 years old he had to run for his life with his family to Pjaia because of the Ajudigian Revolution in 1642. All plantations were destroyed and the slaves were freed. Qjarax survived and moved to Pjaia after for 2 years. Lots of family members of Qjarax were killed during the revolution. Qjarax describes this as a traumatic time. Qjarax later supported the Ajudigian Revolution and the freedom of the slaves. His name, Carraz is named after the surname of the best friend of his dad, Gabriel Carraz (1599-1630) who died of tuberculosis and his dad wanted to honor him. Qjarax was Ajudigian registered after the Ajudigian Revolution when Ajudigian enslaved people and Spanish people that survived the revolution with a Spanish name had to change their name and surname. Carraz had to change his name to Qjarax. Qjarax was not popular at all in that time. It became a more popular name after the death of Qjarax. Qjarax means "wise" and "strength". His surname was not entirely changed. His surname was a combined surname but only his dad recognized him so he named de la Coso after his son's birthplace. de la Coso was later changed to the Ajudigian way of spelling it: del'Coso.

Scola del'Coso

From the age of about twelve until he was seventeen, Qjarax was educated at the Scola del'Coso, which taught Latin and Ancient Greek and probably learnt him a significant amount of mathematics. At Scola del'Coso, Qjarax was the top student of the school. He was very curious and smart. When he was 16 years old, his father died of scurvy. Qjarax had a hard time in this period mourning. His school didn't went the best this year but he picked it up again later. Qjarax later lived with his uncle, Mjanuelo Paramilla-Aguillar. He was a wealthy fruit and spice trader.

University of Cambridge

Del'Coso his uncle had sended him to Cambridge to study there. His uncle knew about the university from a book. Qjarax took a trader ship from Pjaia to Montmorency and from Montmorency to Cambridge. When he arrived there, Qjarax was later admitted to Trinity College at the University of Cambridge on November 1652.
