Kuna (icebreaker)
''Kuna'' is the oldest in service river icebreaker in the world, built in 1884 in Danzig. The ship which is sailing on the Oder changed flag five times. Today, it sails as a museum and training ship, intended for historical and cultural education in the field of the history of waterways, inland navigation, water construction and ecology, as well as the culture and history of the region in which it has been revitalized. History ''Kuna'', the fourth in a series of steam icebreakers, was built at the Danziger Schiffswerft & Kesselschmiede Feliks Devrient & Co. in 1884. Initially, the ship was named ''Ferse'' (the German name for the Wierzyca flowing into the Vistula – all four ships were named after rivers in the lower Vistula basin). In 1940, ''Ferse'' was renamed ''Marder'' (marten in German) and, in 1947, retained that meaning in Polish as ''Kuna''.

Guna Language
The Guna language (formerly Kuna or Cuna), spoken by the Guna people of Panama and Colombia, belongs to the Chibchan language family. History The Guna were living in what is now Northern Colombia and the Darién Province of Panama at the time of the Spanish invasion, and only later began to move westward towards what is now Guna Yala due to a conflict with Spanish and other Indigenous groups. Centuries before the conquest, the Guna arrived in South America as part of a Chibchan migration moving east from Central America. At the time of the Spanish invasion, they were living in the region of Uraba and near the borders of what are now Antioquia and Caldas. Alonso de Ojeda and Vasco Núñez de Balboa explored the coast of Colombia in 1500 and 1501. They spent the most time in the Gulf of Urabá, where they made contact with the Guna. In far-eastern Guna Yala, the community of New Caledonia is near the site where Scottish explorers tried, unsuccessfully, to establish a colony ...

Guna People
The Guna (also spelled Kuna or Cuna) are an Indigenous people of Panama and Colombia. Guna people live in three politically autonomous '' comarcas'' or autonomous reservations in Panama, and in a few small villages in Colombia. There are also communities of Guna people in Panama City, Colón, and other cities. Most Guna live on small islands off the coast of the comarca of Guna Yala known as the San Blas Islands. The other two Guna comarcas in Panama are Kuna de Madugandí and Kuna de Wargandí. They are Guna-speaking people who once occupied the central region of what is now Panama and the neighboring San Blas Islands and still survive in marginal areas. In the Guna language, they call themselves ''Dule'' or ''Tule'', meaning "people", and the name of the language is ''Dulegaya'', literally "people-mouth". The term was in the language itself spelled ''Kuna'' prior to a 2010 orthographic reform, but the Congreso General de la Nación Gunadule since 2010 has promoted the spe ...
