Tagaeri
The Tagaeri are an eastern Huaorani people living in Yasuni National Park, in the Ecuadorian Amazon Basin, named (in Wao-Terero, the Huaorani language) after one of their members, Tagae. Nearby Kichwa communities sometimes refer to them as Awashiri, or "high-ground people". They live a hunting and foraging lifestyle and have resisted outside contact, making them one of the so-called uncontacted peoples of the world. In addition to Tagaeri, the area is home to their kin, the Taromenane, another eastern Huaorani group.
History
Tagae and his followers were among the Huaroani families who separated off in 1968 after refusing missionary settlement, and have since lived in voluntary isolation. Contact with other Huaorani has remained at a low level, but marked by bursts of inter-clan violence, e.g. 1993, 2003. In the 1990s, eastern Huaorani groups moved westward, near to the Kichwa community of Curaray, in part to escape the effects of petroleum exploration and logging activity and possibly due to reduced game stocks. Curaray Kichwa, who occasionally see them but avoid interacting with them, say these are the Tagaeri, speaking a language like that of the western Huaorani.

A Fine Line Between The Middle
by: DiggerAnd when I think of you
I hope we make it through
And when I think I'm strong
You let me know I'm wrong
Everything we ever did
It somehow complicated it
And somehow now we've lost our grip
You've always had me right where you want me
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
And when I think of me
And how it used to be
I was so different then
I don't know where to begin
Everything we ever did
And somehow now we've lost our grip
You've always had me right where you want me
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
(You, always. You, always)
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
