This an introductory overiew and photo essay on Guyana's Amerindians, including summaries of their current situation, challenges and prospects.

Indigenous Peoples
1.0 Introduction
The Indigenous peoples of Guyana have inhabited the country long before the land was discovered by the Europeans. They are also major inhabitants all sections of the hinterland: forest, savannah, coastland and highland. They possess knowledge of the natural environment that enables them to make their living in remote areas without modern infrastructure. There are nine remaining tribes left, the Wapishiana, Akawaio, Arekuna, Macushi, Carib, Warrow, Patamona, Arawak and the Wai Wai, the latter has now reached a gene pool crisis, with few pure Wai Wai individuals remaining in the village.
1.1 Current status of Indigenous people
Unfortunately these people sometimes find themselves in the midst of land use conflicts, where the land they reside upon or live next to is given as a consession to foresters, miners, resort developers or conservation areas. They are also vulnerable to exploition by some people who use their skill to harvest forest products, such as wildlife and non timber products, they are paid very little upon delivery.
Amerindian farming
Amerindian farmers use the traditional method of shifting agriculture which is a method best suited to the conditions of the forest. It was a method that has evolved over centuries of experience. It has been criticized as a wasteful means of landuse, however it has proven to be an effective means of cultivation without needing artificial fertilizers or pesticides. However times are changing and many farmers are remaining on one piece of land for longer periods because of land restrictions and other outside influences, thus necessitating modern techniques of artificial fertilizers and pecticides.

In 2004 the Assembly proclaimed a Second International Decade by resolution 59/174 . The goal of this Decade is to further strengthen international cooperation for the solution of problems faced by indigenous people in such areas as culture, education, health, human rights, the environment, and social and economic development. In April 2000, the Commission on Human Rights adopted a resolution to establish the

    70. THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES
    Online exhibition on the Ainu, Nivkh and Orok, by the Sakhalin Regional Museum.
    http://museum.sakh.com/eng/10.shtml
    THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES The ethnographic displays are the pride of the Museum collections. Artifacts from the late 19th and early 20th centuries show that the indigenous peoples of Sakhalin and the Kurile Islands had highly distinctive traditional cultures. There were three main ethnic groups in Sakhalin - the Nivkh people, mainly in the north of the island, Orok, in the central area, and Ainu, in the south. There were also small numbers of Evenk people. The Ainu are one of the oldest and most enigmatic peoples of the world. They differ greatly from neighbouring Mongoloid peoples, not only in appearance, but in l anguage and many other features of their material and spiritual culture. Light-skinned and bearded Ainu men, and Ainu women with tattoos round the mouth and on the hands, were a war-like people. Their main arms were swords, worn in vegetable fibre sword-belts, heavy fighting clubs with sharp spikes, and bows and arrows. A unique exhibit is the armour, woven from narrow strips of bearded seal skin. This armour protected a warrior's body completely, and is now a very rare and precious object. Fishing and hunting implements (including those for sea fishing), a spear, a harpoon, a hook, and bows and arrows show that adaptation to the natural conditions of the island was highly developed. When hunting for animals the Ainu used arrows poisoned with aconite. The display also has wooden

We are excited that we are about to embark on a joint garden with our elders at the Eagle Lodge in St. Paul. We will be planting during the full moon in May. At the end of the harvest, the elders will be responsible for distributing the foods as they see fit. I am sure this spring and summer will bring us many new teachings as we work alongside our elders. We are also excited to begin the new HIV rapid testing at Pow wows this year. If you want to schedule a test, call 1-877-319-8246 to make an appointment here at our main office or at our office in Brainerd. There is no charge for this call. The sun is a warm and healing element.

    South America "In the Andes, Nurturance is at the Very Heart of Life"
    (Land of the Inkas)
    The indigenous peoples (aboriginal peoples) of South America are found from the Isthmus of Panama to Tierra del Fuego. An estimated 30 million people were living there when the Europeans arrived. In the Andean region extensive remains show developed cultures at Chav’n de Hu‡ntar and among the Paracas in Peru. The Mochica, Chimu, and Nazca in Peru, the Chibcha and Aymara of the Andes, and the Araucanos and Mapuche
    of Chile had socially complex pre-Columbian cultures, surpassed only by the Inca. Descendants of these peoples live today in Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, northwestern Argentina, and Chile. Quechua , spoken by the Inca, is the most widely spoken language in South America. Since the Spanish conquest indigenous peoples have been used as laborers, poorly paid and lacking political representation; these conditions of semiservitude are changing slowly. Some, notably the Inca, play a significant role in the national culture; but many live in small, peripheral groups. A few descendants of the Arawaks and Caribs live in Venezuela, the Guianas, and Northern Brazil. The Guaran’ in Brazil are few and scattered, but in Paraguay their language is widely spoken and, like Quechua in Bolivia, is the official language of the country.
