NAME
::01
Actually, Galibi is the self-designation for a group which lives on the Oiapoque River and for the Indians of the same group who live in French Guiana, especially on the Maroni and Mana rivers. In French Guiana, they call themselves Kaliña, the term Galibi being a generic designation used by the Europeans to refer to the people who speak Carib living along the coast of the Guianas.
