Visited Embera Natives!!PANAMA 🇵🇦

I Visited Embera Tribe!! PANAMA 🇵🇦
Fatih Koparan is in Panama with the sponsorship of Just English Language Schools (www.justenglishtr.com)!
We set off in the morning from Panama City, the capital of Panama, to discover where the Embera Tribe or Embera Indians, the shortest people I have ever seen, live. A Norwegian, a Turkish, and 2 Dutch girls are on the road, like an anecdote, but when the Dutch girls can't fit in the car, they continue with another car. Thus begins our adventure in search of the Panamanian Tribes in the Panama Rainforest.
One of the Panama Tribes, Embera Indians or Embera Tribe, can be reached from a small town a few hours away from Panama City, by taking their indigenous boats and taking a few hours' river journey.
There are canoes used by the locals on the Chagra River. We ride these. The beach is full of flowers. Panamanian canoeist who will also take us to the waterfall on the Chagra River. Emre, a Turkish friend living in Panama, was going to make a trip to the Embera Tribe for the first time.
Ahmet is a Bulgarian Turk, from Bursa, and I am from Bursa. We talk to Ahmet with a Thracian accent along the way :) There are Panamanian fishermen on the way. They fish without fear of piranhas and crocodiles.
In some areas on the Chagra River the countercurrent is very strong. That's why our primitive canoe is having a hard time. The Chagra River, the source of the Panama Canal, has colorful tropical trees, tropical flowers, tropical birds and tropical animals. At the end of the road, we reached the village of Embera Indians, but it started to rain heavily. Where are the Rainforests? Animals that live in the Rainforest? Those who are wondering who are the people living in the Rainforest can take a look at my videos.
The Embera Children are playing in the rain in the river. Children are children everywhere. There is a totem belonging to the Tribal Religion at the entrance. Some of the Panama Tribes believe in this religion, they worship totems.
Embera God and his native huts made of banana leaves. To enter the Embera Tribe, one had to get a traditional Embera tattoo. There are different styles of tattoos. those looking for interesting tattoo ideas can browse the art of embera on google.
The Embera Indians are the shortest people I've ever seen in the world. They're really short. I thought adults were children at first. I know pygmies are very short in Africa, but I didn't expect to encounter something like this about Emberas.
I'm examining a shamanism, animism statue that could be a fertility goddess. It is very similar to the animist god statue I saw in the documentary I shot in Togo, West Africa.
Local women carrying trays on their heads, children playing, local women in colorful dresses are walking around the village.
There are giant fruits on the trees. They were cutting these tropical fruits and making plates. Giant pumpkins.
They were also making medicine from the liquid in it. Natural rainforest remedies.
We also see the nests that giant ants make in trees in the rainforest.
The leader of this tribe is a woman. It is a matriarchal society and women rule it.
the leader tells us about which fruits and which plants herbal medicines are made from.
It shows herbal remedies that are good for stomach pain.
Native Americans are actually our distant relatives. In the Ice Age, exactly 30 thousand years ago, the sea in the Bering Strait, which connects Siberia and North America, freezes and the Asians who hunt mammoths cross unknowingly to an unfamiliar continent. The ancestors of the Native Americans of North and South America today are those who crossed the Bering Strait 30,000 years ago. This is the reason why the Incas, Aztecs, etc. have slanted eyes. This is a subject that Atatürk was very curious about and examined, and Güneş mentions it in his Language Theory.
The women cooked the fresh fish with traditional cooking methods and served it to us among the banana leaves.
After watching Embera music and Embera dances, we set off on our way back. We get caught in an incredible rain in the river, but we also see the waterfall. I hope I don't get pneumonia. The shortest people I've seen in the world The Embera Tribe, who live in the Panama rainforest, I hope you enjoyed it.
