A group of Yukpa men in front of their traditional hut, probably in Río Negro, dressed in western clothing with some visitors.
File — Box: 1, Item: 17
Scope and Contents
The man in white clothing, in the middle, could be the local headman who usually wears a straw hat decorated with yellow feathers. All these people wear western clothing, which means that they probably inhabit a village in the lower part of the Río Negro valley, close to Venezuelan settlements and the town of Machiques.
