The Cayapa Indians of Ecuador: a population study of seven protein genetic polymorphisms.

Annals of human biology - 1 Jan 2000

Scacchi R, Corbo R M, Rickards O, De Stefano G F

Abstract excerpt

The Cayapa Indians are a population of 3600 individuals living in Ecuador, along the Cayapas River and its tributaries. They are thought to have migrated from the Andes, north of Quito, and settled in the Cayapas area five centuries ago as a consequence of Inca expansion and of the Spanish conquest. In order to study the genetic structure of the Cayapa and their relationships with other native American peoples,...
