Who they are
The Potiguara are one of the oldest Indigenous peoples of the Brazilian coast, living mainly on their ancestral lands along the northern coast of Paraíba. Shaped by centuries of resistance and adaptation, they preserve their identity through traditional rituals such as toré, communal life in their villages, and care for the mangroves and rivers that sustain their families.
