Gualemo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gualemo was the name by which the Spaniards knew the tribe of Promaucaes inhabiting the Lontué River valley and was the name early Spaniards gave to that region[1]. Gualemo is also the name of one of the arms of the lower Lontué River that created several islands of fertile alluvium that existed near the confluence with the Teno River as late as 1899 [2].
