Yaro people

The Yaro people were an indigenous people of the Southern Cone of South America who inhabited both banks of the lower Uruguay River (present-day territories of Uruguay and Argentina (Entre Ríos Province)). A minor tribe, they were closely related to the Charrúa people, who they were exterminated and absorbed by between the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

Nowadays a street in Montevideo (Cordón neighbourhood) bears their name.
