The Teushen or Tehues were an indigenous hunter-gatherer people of Patagonia in Argentina. They were considered "foot nomads", whose culture relied on hunting and gathering. 〔Adelaar and Muysken 550〕 Their territory was between the Tehuelche people to the south and the Puelche people to their north. Before 1850, there were an estimated 500 to 600 Teushen people.〔Adelaar and Muysken 554-5〕 They were slaughtered in the Argentinian genocides of Patagonia, known as the Conquest of the Desert. By 1925, only ten to twelve Teushen survived. They are considered extinct as a tribe.〔 The Teushen language is almost entirely unknown. Linguists believe, from the limited data available, that it was closest to Tehuelche, the language of the people to the south of the Teushen. ==See also== *Haush *Selknam *Tehuelche 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Teushen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
