Public Comment
The number of the ethnic group must be considerably lower than the 5,090 registered by the 1994 Indigenous Census, since group membership rather than ethnicity seems to have played a crucial role in this census. Thus, anyone born in Magdalena – or anywhere else in the Province of Itenez for that matter – is considered to be, or considers himself to be Itonama, including whites, mestizos and criollos.
