One branch of these is the celebrated Inca race, of the high-lauds of Peru. Further south, we have the Pampa tribes and the Arauca-nians; and, still further on, the Patagonians, the Tuelches, the Puelches, andthe Fuegians. Midway of the western coast of South America, we find the stem of theSouth American Mongoloids reaching our continents from Polynesia. Thisbranch contributes a large part of the native races of South America. Onedivision of these is the branch of the Grand Chacos of Argentina Anotherbranch carries the Guarani-Brazilians. A division of these, covering a greatpart of Eastern Brazil, are the Crens In Northern Brazil are the Guecksand the Crans, and in French Guiana—the extreme development—the Gui-anans.
