The Yanomami houses are built with poles, vines and leaves. Each family builds their own house, close to other houses. The houses are then covered with a common roof, forming a circular type donut-shaped village.

The Yanomami tribes traditionally wear minimal clothing made from natural materials such as tree bark or plant fibers. Men often wear a piece of cloth around their waist, while women wear skirts or loincloths. Body painting and adornments such as feathers and beads are also common among the Yanomami.
The Yanomami people speak Yanomamö, which is a language in the Yanomaman family. It is primarily spoken in the Amazon rainforest across parts of Brazil and Venezuela where the Yanomami indigenous group resides.
The yanomami were not killed specifically by gold miners, but conflicts between illegal miners and the yanomami have occurred due to land disputes in the Amazon rainforest. The yanomami have faced violence, disease, and environmental destruction as a result of illegal mining activities in their territory.
