The mysterious Buglé

The Indian Bugle group, is also related to the group Bokotá, with whom they share the buglere language, inhabits the same territory corresponding to the Ngabe ethnic group, therefore they are usually referred to as “the Ngabe-Buglé.”  However culturally there are two different groups, who speak different language.  Less numerous than their neighbors, their small villages have difficult access and the majority thereof is located in the territories south from the villages, which, according to the bugle legend, their ancestors arrived when they still had wings to fly.  Although their language allegedly originates in the pre Colombian group Bogotá or Bokotá, their historic origin remains a mystery.
