KOGUI TOUR

KOGUI TOUR

The Kogui or (Cogui or Kagaba), which means “Jaguar” in the Kogui language, is an indigenous ethnic group that lives in the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta, Colombia. Its civilization has continued since pre-Columbian times. The Kogui are descendants of the Tayrona culture, which flourished before the time of the Spanish conquest. The Tayrona were an advanced civilization that built many stone structures and trails in the jungle. They made many gold objects that would hang from the trees and around their necks. They lived not unlike the Kogui of today.
