Selk’nam People, also called Onawo or Ona people, are the Indigenous bands of hunters-gatherers that lived in the Tierra del Fuego, are today considered extinct.
The bands were victims, in the early ‘900s, of European explorations; gold prospectors and Estancieros (landlords) launched a campaign of extermination against indigenous people in order to stop the sheep hunt that the Selk’nam were carrying on.
