Wiznay

Wiznay is a name for a Wichí language variety associated with the lower Pilcomayo country. Wichí communities inhabit the forest and riverine lowlands of the Gran Chaco, where the Pilcomayo descends from the Andes and spreads into wetlands. Their languages belong to the Mataguayan family. Hunting, gathering and fishing formed complementary parts of life as communities moved through territories shaped by seasonal rain and flooding.
