Alacaluf tribe - Alacaluf tribe (English spelling)
They are hunter-gatherers who live in the coastal areas and small archipelago from the southern coast of Chile to the west of Tierra del Fuego, located at the southern tip of South America. They live in isolation from the outside world in a harsh natural environment with cold and heavy rainfall. They have almost no contact with other societies other than ships passing by. Their population continued to decline in the 20th century. They live in simple tents made of tree branches and animal skins or bark, and travel by canoe in search of food. They do not form permanent settlements, and do not form any social groups other than the family. They mainly collect shellfish and berries, and also hunt marine animals such as seals. They do not use fishing gear such as fishhooks or nets, and rarely catch fish.

チリの南海岸から,南アメリカ南端に位置するフエゴ島西部にいたる沿岸部および小群島に住む狩猟採集民。寒冷多雨の厳しい自然環境下にあって,外界からは隔絶された生活を送っている。付近を航行する船舶以外に他社会との接触ルートはほとんどない。20世紀には人口が減少し続けた。木枝の枠組みに獣皮か樹皮をかけた簡素なテントに住み,食糧を求めてカヌーで遊動する。定住集落はつくらず,家族以外のいかなる社会集団も構成しない。貝類と液果類の採集を主とし,アザラシなど海獣の狩猟も行なう。釣針,網などの漁具をもたず,魚をとることはほとんどない。
