Guayanas

Guayanas, Indians of Paraguay, who occupy the rivers flowing to the right bank of the Parana, between lat. 25° and 26° S. They are a peaceful tribe, living partly by agriculture, partly by the chase. The Guayanas are members of the Guarani family, as is evident from their appearance and from the specimen of their language published by Lieut. D. Patiho, in the Bulletin de la Soc. de Geographie, August, 1868.
