Hamenk

Hamenk was a Selk’nam territory on the main island of Tierra del Fuego. Selk’nam families organised the island into territories known as haruwen and moved through open plains, forests and river valleys. The guanaco was central to their hunting economy, supplying food, hides and materials for tools and shelter. The windswept country lay between the Atlantic coast and the wooded interior of the island.
