According to most sources, about half of the population is of racially mixed origin ; Mestizos ( European / Amerindian ), Mulattos ( European / African ) and Zambos ( Amerindian / African ).

Around one-fifth is said to be of European ancestry, and one-tenth African.

The remaining Amerindian population is statistically small.

Three Amerindian tribes located in the country are the Wayuu, located in the west, in Zulia State, and the Timoto-cuicas, also in the west, in Mérida State, in the Andes.
