Patagonian camp, 1838
Tehuelches is the collective name of the native tribes of Patagonia. They are also called Patagonians.
It is possible that the stories of the early European explorers about the Patagones, a race of giants in South America, are based on the Tehuelches.
Language
The Tehuelche speak Tehuelche, a Chon language.
