The Cofán are considered one of the oldest surviving indigenous cultures in the Ecuadorian Amazon, with a history stretching back centuries. Their legends often center around their relationship with the forest, their history of encounters with outsiders, and their spiritual beliefs. Cofán religious traditions are shamanistic, with a strong emphasis on harmonious relationships with nature and the spiritual world, including beliefs about "invisible people" and the power of Ayahuasca.
