Mamaco tribe

The Mamaco tribe is a tribe native to to the dense jungle in the interior of Vastallos. The true size of the tribe is not known but the tribes influence on the surrounding landscape is large enough to suggest a sizeable population.

History
The tribe reached Vastallos around 3000 years ago and established themselves in the dense jungle of Vastallos, where they found another tribe with which they merged. Not much more is known of their history due to isolationist practices.

Population
The tribe's population was always stable at around 20 members but due to rapid urbanization and contact with the outside world their numbers have decreased to around 8 members that have been seen in the jungle.

Encounters with the outside world
The tribe had few contacts with the outside world being shy and peaceful. But there were about 3 reported aggressive encounters in which they protected their land from loggers and a member of Carvay that thought they were a threat and attacked them. They are now in peace with the tribe

And another encounter with a scientist which stayed with them for 2 months, that got most of the info we have today plus incredible photos. There are some trusted outsiders that sometimes visit them, but respect their wishes on isolation from the world.

Villages
A Mamaco village is usually a treehouse with various stories in a home tree. Each story with a function such as storage, living spaces and even a story for cults.

Religion
Nothing much is known about their religion but they worship their mother nature that created all life present in the forest.

Language
Their language is portuguese-mamaquian which is a hybrid between the 2 native languages of the previous tribes.

Threats
The tribe is in constant danger of being destroyed by diseases that people bring from the outside world that they are not adapted to, are threatened of losing all their home range because of urbanization and nations expanding into their territory and also losing their food source which is getting scarcer each day due to bigger nations using the forest's resources.
