Most of the members of this Native American group live in a special comarca (territory) in the heart of the Darién jungle. The group, however, is a relatively recent new-comer in Panama. They migrated to the Isthmus from the region of Chocó, in Colombia (hence their former name of Chocoes). Representing 10% of all Panamanian Indians, the Emberá and Wounaan (two related, but culturally different groups) make a living from agriculture, hunting and fishing. In 2000, their population stood at 29,367.
