Chaná people

Chaná (endonym: Chañá or Yañá) were one of the native nations of Argentina and Uruguay.

After the arrival of Europeans and the introduction of cattle, they started using leather for dressing.

[2] Their name was kept in a well-known local coffee brand, "Café El Chaná".

A street in Montevideo (Cordón) bears the name "Chaná".
