The Patagonian Indigenous Peoples are the original inhabitants of the region known as Patagonia, which spans parts of southern Argentina and Chile. This diverse group includes various tribes, such as the Mapuche, Tehuelche, and Selk'nam, each with their own unique languages, cultures, and traditions. Historically, they relied on hunting, fishing, and gathering for sustenance, adapting to the harsh landscapes of the area. Today, many Patagonian Indigenous communities continue to preserve their cultural heritage while facing challenges related to land rights and modernization. Efforts are being made to revitalize their languages and traditions, ensuring that their rich history and identity remain vibrant in contemporary society.
