Palin

description Palin Overview

Palin is a traditional Mapuche stick-and-ball game associated with communities in Chile and Argentina. Players use curved wooden sticks to control and strike a small ball during a contest played on an open field. The game has social, cultural, and ceremonial importance within Mapuche life and was historically restricted by Spanish colonial authorities. It is intended here as a traditional Indigenous sport, not as a modern team-sport variant.
