War/Soldiers
The ancestors of the Ngöbe-Bugle men were the formidable fighters the conquistadors rated among the most skilled of all the warriors in the Western Hemisphere. Urraca was the greatest cacique. He
defeated the Spaniards which caused the separation of Panama from the Spanish Empire. Panama joined Columbia after the war but the
Guaymies stayed in their mountain villages.
Family Life and Structure
The average household has three people living in it. A
child’s parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts,
ect. usually bought everything for the child
even when they are grown adults and married. Their
food consisted of rice, beans, tortillas, empanadas,
and tamales.
FarmingThe Guaymí Indians fished, hunted,
raised dogs, cattle, chickens and pigs. They used the slash-and-burn
agriculture.

The Guaymí Indians were first discovered in the 17th century but nobody knows exactly what date. The Indians are still around today, but they are having a
hard time holding on to their culture.
Evidence All Guaymí Indians love beads and
beaded jewelry. The necklaces used to be made of pebbles, pieces of bone, seeds, and
seashells before they started to trade for colorful beads. They do not live in a big city so there are
no major buildings.
