Description
The Kuna Indians are the indigenous people of Panama. They live in three politically autonomous camarcas or reservations in Panama and in a few small villages in Colombia.
The greatest number of Kuna people live on small islands known as the San Blas Islands, off the Caribbean coast of Panama. There are also small communities of Kuna people in Panama City, Colon, and few other towns.
The Kuna are famous for their bright molas, a colorful textile art form made with the technique of applique and reverse applique. Mola panels are used to make the blouses of the Kuna women's national dress.
