The area of Rockwall was originally occupied by Caddo Indians. Creek Indians moved to the area in early 1800s. The origin of Rockwall also is related to the selection of its name. In 1851, as the first Anglo-American settlers moved to the area, they started to dig wells. During the digging, they found large underground rock walls that seemed to be manmade though scientists believe they are natural formations. The town was established in 1854 and named after these rock walls. The city is home to the Dallas Diesel, a team in the North American Football League.
