Boruca (Brunca) Tribe

An indigenous Costa Rican tribe.

The Boruca, or Brunca, Tribe is one of the few indigenous tribes in Costa Rica.  They subsist through sharing their culture with others.  They have a museum with paintings and pictures of their history and legends, including el Juego de los Diablitos.  They sell hand-made crafts to support their tribe and are especially known for their colorful wooden masks, like those used in el Juego.
