History
A Latundê village was discovered by outsiders in the Tubarão-Latundê Reserve in 1977; however, the villagers caught measles in 1980, and the majority of them died. The surviving Latundê on that reserve live in the Barroso Village. Because of their small numbers, they have intermarried with Kwazá and Aikanã people.
