Indigenous peoples of South America

Indigenous peoples of South America are diverse groups with unique cultures, languages, and histories, residing mainly in the Amazon rainforest and other regions. They include civilizations like the Quechua, Aymara, Guarani, and Yanomami, among many others. Their traditions often revolve around a deep connection to the land and nature, and they practice various forms of agriculture, hunting, and fishing.
