Tahamí people

The Tahamí were a Colombian indigenous people who inhabited the Antioquia Department region west of the Magdalena River at the time of the Spanish conquest of the Chibchan nations; the Nutabe were their northern neighbor and Muisca their southeastern. They were defined as comparably advanced to the Muisca in Century Dictionary and did not have hereditary rulers. It was customary the dead be buried with gold.[1]
