Who is the Kuntanawa tribe?
Like the Nukini, the Kuntanawa tribe nearly died out due to the latex cycle massacres. One family survived the rubber boom, and it wasn't until the early 2000s that a small group of Kuntanawa began to fight for their own heritage. Unfortunately, their culture continues to be threatened and the Kuntanawa struggle to regain full ethnic recognition and try to reclaim their territory.
Currently, only about 250 members of the tribe live in the Acre district of Brazil. To survive, Kuntanawa joins with other Pano language tribes. They organize festivals together, sharing their traditions, rituals and culture with foreign tourists.
