Picture of Native American Indians

Picture of Native American Indian - Matis Indian girl in the Amazon River Basin in South America. Various Amazonian Indian tribes have different styles of cutting their hair. The Matis tribe women typically cut their hair very short. However, this tradition is presently changing due to the influence of outside cultures and some younger Matis girls, such as the girl in this picture, are opting for less traditional hairstyles.
