The Yanomami are an indigenous group residing in the Amazon rainforest, primarily in northern Brazil and southern Venezuela. They are known for their unique culture, traditional practices, and deep connection to the forest environment. The Yanomami live in communal houses called shabonos, which are circular and made from natural materials. Their society is organized into clans, and they rely on hunting, fishing, and gathering for sustenance. The Yanomami have faced significant challenges due to external pressures, including deforestation and mining activities in their territory.
