Pacahuara Language
Chácobo-Pakawara is a Panoan language spoken by about 550 of 860 ethnic tribal Chácobo people of the Beni Department of northwest of Magdalena, Bolivia, and (as of 2004) 17 of 50 Pakawara.

The current population of the Guarayo group in Bolivia is 12,000. They primarily speak Guarayu, and 70% of the population is Roman Catholic with the remaining 30% practicing ethnic religions.

They were contacted and grouped in the beginning of the 1880s where they b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
