Suyá
The Suyá are an indigenous people living in the Brazilian Amazon, primarily in the state of Mato Grosso. They are known for their rich cultural traditions, including unique rituals, music, and art. The Suyá language belongs to the Tupian language family, and their community is organized around family groups and social structures that emphasize cooperation and mutual support.
Traditionally, the Suyá engage in subsistence agriculture, hunting, and fishing, relying on the natural resources of the rainforest. Their connection to the land is vital for their identity and way of life. In recent years, the Suyá have faced challenges due to deforestation and external pressures on their territory.
