Amerindian Heritage Museum

The Amerindian Heritage Museum in Georgetown is dedicated to preserving and celebrating the cultures of Guyana's nine indigenous peoples — the Arawak, Carib, Wapishana, Arekuna, Akawaio, Patamona, Wai-Wai, Macushi, and Warrau.

The museum houses a diverse collection of artefacts, traditional crafts, and historical exhibits that tell the story of the first Guyanese — the peoples who lived on this land for thousands of years before European contact. From intricate beadwork and woven baskets to hunting tools and ceremonial items, every exhibit opens a window into indigenous life and culture.
