Chibchan Peoples

The Chibchan Peoples are an indigenous group native to Central America and northern South America, primarily found in regions such as Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and parts of Nicaragua. They are known for developed societies with distinct languages, rich oral traditions, and sophisticated crafts like pottery and metallurgy. Historically, they played significant roles in regional trade and cultural exchanges. Today, many Chibchan-descended communities maintain their cultural heritage, languages, and traditions, contributing to the diverse tapestry of indigenous cultures in the Americas.
