The Yaghan people, also called Yagan, Yahgan (the original spelling), Yámana or Yamana, are the indigenous inhabitants of the islands south of Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego extending their presence into Cape Horn.

They were known as Fuegians by the English speaking world, but the term is nowadays avoided as it can refer to any of the indigenous peoples of Tierra del Fuego.

They speak the Yaghan language that is considered to be a language isolate, i.e. a natural language with no demonstrable genealogical (or "genetic") relationship with other living languages.

The Yaghan were nomads who traveled by canoes between islands to collect food. The men hunted sea lions while the women dived to collect shellfish. Nowadays, most of them live in Navarino Island.
