Sawariwau (Wapishana: Sawari Wa'o[1]) is a village in the Upper Takutu-Upper Essequibo Region of Guyana. Sawariwau is inhabited by Wapishana Amerindians.[2] It is located about 70 miles (110 km) south of Lethem in the Rupununi savannah.[2] The main language spoken in the village is Wapishana.[3]

History

The name of the village translates to grandfather spirit of fishes. Sawariwau was founded by chief Suubau,[1] and is one of the oldest Wapishana villages.[2] Father Cuthbert Cary-Elwes, SJ was the first missionary to arrive in the village, and a church was constructed in 1919.[4][5]

Katoonarib used to be a satellite of Sawariwau, but has become independent.[6] Sawariwau was in a Neighbourhood Democratic Council (municipality) with Ireng and Lethem,[7] however the municipality was dissolved in 2012.[8] The village is again governed by a Toshao (village chief) with 11 councillors.[2] In 2013, the land was demarcated,[9] however as of 2017, the demarcation is still in dispute.[1]

Overview

The economy is based on subsistence farming and cattle ranching. The village has a primary school, a secondary school, a health centre, and a community centre.[2] Internet connection is provided via free Wi-Fi.[10] Digicel has installed a communication mast in the village.[1] The village depends on rain water for drinking. There is no electricity other than private diesel generators and solar panels.[2]
