Manga is an Amerindian village of the Karipuna do Amapá people in the Brazilian municipality of Oiapoque, Amapá. It is the largest village of the tribe.[3][4] Manga is located on the Caripi River in the Uaçá Indigenous Territory.[5]

Overview[edit]

Manga is located in an area which was disputed between French Guiana and Brazil. In the 19th century, Amerindian people from several tribes and non-indigenous people settled in the neutral territory. In 1900, the territory was awarded to Brazil, however the main language spoken in Manga is Karipúna French Creole.[3]

In 1976, a school was established in Manga where the children were taught in Portuguese[6] In 1996, bilingual education was provided.[7] The village has a clinic,[8] and a community house.[5]

Manga can be accessed via an unpaved road which connects to the BR-156 highway.[9] Electricity is provided using Diesel generators. In 2015 work started on a hydro-electric power station in Oiapoque which will also supply electricity for Manga.[10] In 2018, Manga hosted a three-day meeting of the indigenous people in the Brazilian, French Guianan and Surinamese region.[11]
