Paramakatoi

關於

Paramakatoi is an Amerindian community in the Potaro-Siparuni Region of Guyana, located in the Pacaraima Mountains. With an altitude of 970 metres (3,180 ft), it is 18 kilometres (11 mi) east of Kurukabaru.

The village name comes from the name of the nearby Palamakú yuk tree, which is surrounded by Palamakú trees, and "toi" means savannah in the Patamona language. "Palamakútoi" became "Paramakatoi" when missionaries arrived in the area.
