Sanapana Youth with parakeets
A Sanapana youth with string bag and holding two parakeets. The Sanapana were one of many nomadic tribes inhabiting the lower Gran Chaco of western Paraguay. With the introduction of Mennonite settlements in the central Chaco in the 1930s, many nomadic tribes semi-settled near the Mennonites. The Mennonites established Missions to many of these tribes, often grouping linguistically similar tribes near by. The Sanapana and Lengua were settled on Mision La Esperanza, southeast of Filadelfia, just off the Trans-America Highway. Both the Sanapana and Lengua, in their tongue, refer to themselves as " Enhlit, " which means " the people." A standard conversation among the Sanapana-Lengua often includes words from their language, mixed with Spanish and Guarani, the national languages of Paraguay, and some Plat-Deutsch, the primary language of the Mennonites

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts a Sanapana youth, a member of one of the nomadic tribes that once inhabited the lower Gran Chaco region of western Paraguay. The Sanapana, along with other tribes such as the Lengua, were among those who semi-settled near the Mennonite settlements that began appearing in the central Chaco in the 1930s. The Mennonites, seeking to spread their faith and establish agricultural communities, established Missions to many of these tribes, including Mision La Esperanza, where the Sanapana and Lengua were settled, southeast of Filadelfia, just off the Trans-America Highway. The young Sanapana man in the photograph is shown holding two vibrant parakeets, a common pet among many indigenous communities in the region. The Sanapana and Lengua refer to themselves as "Enhlit," which translates to "the people," reflecting their strong sense of community and cultural identity. The Sanapana-Lengua language is a unique blend of their native tongue, Spanish, Guarani, and some Plat-Deutsch, the primary language of the Mennonites. This linguistic diversity is evident in the everyday conversations among the community members. The Sanapana man in the photograph wears a traditional string bag, a practical and versatile item used by the nomadic tribes for carrying their belongings. His smile adds a warm and friendly touch to the image, making it a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural diversity of the Chaco region in Paraguay.
