Minuane
Minuane were one of the native nations of Uruguay, Argentina (specially in the province of Entre Rios) and Brazil (specially in the state of Rio Grande do Sul). Their territory was along the Paraná and Uruguay Rivers. In one source, they are fully identified with the Guenoas, being actually considered the same tribe. About They were related to the other tribes in the area like Charrua and Güenoa.Keane 49 Currently, no one claims Minuane ancestry in Uruguay. The tribe seems to be extinct in its full blooded form. However, some studies show that Minuane ancestry is present in some Argentinian people living in Entre Rios. In 1583, the conquistador Juan de Garay was killed in battle against the Minuane nation. The Battle of Yí (''batalla del Yí'') occurred In 1702 in the Banda Oriental. There, 2000 Guaraníes misioneros and Spanish killed 300 minuanes, charrúas and yaros, and captured 500 more.

Indigenous Peoples In Uruguay
Indigenous peoples in Uruguay or Native Uruguayans, are the peoples who lived in the modern state of Uruguay. Because of colonial practices, disease and active exclusion, only a very small share of the population is aware or knows of indigenous ancestry. Scholars do not agree about the first settlers in what is now Uruguay; but there is evidence that there was human presence some 10,000 years BCE. Indigenous Uruguayans disappeared in the 1830s and with the exception of the Guaraní, little is known about these peoples and even less about their genetic characteristics.The Charrúa peoples were perhaps the most-talked-about indigenous people of the Southern Cone in what was known as the Banda Oriental.Burford, Tim''Uruguay.''Bucks, UK: Bradt Travel Guides, 2011. . Other significant tribes were the Minuane, Yaro, Güenoa, Chaná, Bohán, Arachán. Languages once spoken in the area include Charrúa, Chaná, Güenoa, Guaraní.

Minuano is a cold southwesterly wind that blows in the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul and in Uruguay. It has the same name of the indigenous Minuane people in the Portuguese language (in Spanish, the name of that people is ''Minuán'', and the same wind is called '' pampero'' in Uruguay). It is widely mentioned in the Gaúcho folklore of the region. This wind originates from cold polar fronts that come from the southwest of South America during periods of high atmospheric pressure, usually following rains caused by the shock of the cold front with warmer stationary humid air. Sometimes it produces a "howling" sound. In popular culture The opening track of the 1987 album Still Life (Talking) by American jazz band the Pat Metheny Group is named after the occurrence.

Indigenous Peoples In Brazil
Indigenous peoples in Brazil ( pt, povos indígenas no Brasil) or Indigenous Brazilians ( pt, indígenas brasileiros, links=no) once comprised an estimated 2000 tribes and nations inhabiting what is now the country of Brazil, before European contact around 1500. Christopher Columbus thought he had reached the East Indies, but Portuguese Vasco da Gama had already reached India via the Indian Ocean route, when Brazil was colonized by Portugal. Nevertheless, the word ("Indians") was by then established to designate the people of the New World and continues to be used in the Portuguese language to designate these people, while a person from India is called in order to distinguish the two. At the time of European contact, some of the Indigenous people were traditionally semi-nomadic tribes who subsisted on hunting, fishing, gathering and migrant agriculture. Many tribes suffered extinction as a consequence of the European settlement and many were assimilated into the Brazilian po ...

Society Of Uruguay
The culture of Uruguay is diverse in its nature since the nation's population is one of multicultural origins. Uruguay has a legacy of artistic and literary traditions, especially for its small size. The culture of Uruguay is known to be heavily European influenced, mostly by the contribution of its alternating conquerors, Spain and Portugal. However, from the year 1858 to 1940, large waves of European immigrants began arriving to Uruguay, with the majority of the immigrants coming from Italy. Minor European immigrant groups – Frenchmen, Germans, Swiss, Russians, Jews, and Armenians, among others – also migrated to Uruguay. The settlement of the European immigrants has resulted in traditions that integrate this diversity with the indigenous people or Charrúa elements. Uruguay has century-old remains and fortresses of the colonial era. Its cities have a rich architectural heritage, and a number of writers, artists, and musicians. Carnaval and candombe are the most importan ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
