Patagonia
Patagonia is the southernmost portion of
South America. Mostly located in
Argentina and partly in
Chile, it comprises the
Andes mountains to the west and south, and plateaux and low plains to the east. The name Patagonia comes from the word
patagon used by
Magellan to describe the native people who his expedition thought to be giants. It is now believed the Patagons were actually
Tehuelches and Aonikenk with an average height of 1.80 m compared to the 1.55 average for Spaniards of the time.
