Chiripá people

The Chiripá are a Guaraní indigenous people who live mainly in Paraguay in the area bounded by the Paraná River and the Acaray and Jejuí Rivers, while in Brazil they coexist with other Guarani groups in villages in the states of Mato Grosso do Sul (where they are simply called Guarani), Paraná and São Paulo. The term ñandéva is used in Paraguay to refer to the tapietes. In Argentina they are found in small groups living among the Mbyas in the province of Misiones. They are highly acculturated but maintain their dialects and religious traditions.
