Guana

Guana takes its name from the Guaná, also known as Kaskiha, an Indigenous people of the Paraguayan Chaco. Their language belongs to the Maskoy family, shared with other peoples of the region. Their country includes the forest and waterways near the Paraguay River, where hunting, fishing and cultivation formed part of traditional life. The river links the dry interior of the Chaco with communities along its eastern edge.
