Artist Portrait

Wayana


Folk

This artist does not refer to a specific group of named individuals (such as a band or musical group) but rather defines the collective term for Carib-speaking people located in the South-Eastern part of the Guiana highlands, a region divided between Brazil, Surinam, and French Guiana. In 1980, when the last census took place, the Wayana numbered some 1,500 individuals, of which 150 in Brazil, among the Apalai, 400 in Surinam, and 1,000 in French Guiana, along the Maroni River. About half of them still speak their original language. Please use this "artist" name (or any language variation thereof, via an ANV) for the Ajana, Uaiana, Alucuyana, Guaque, Ojana, Orcocoyana, Pirixi, Urukuena, Waiano etc.
