Damiana da Cunha (1779–1831) was a cacique of the Kayapo people in what is now Brazil. She was also a colonial-era captain major and sertanista who was an important political figure in Colonial Brazil in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Her position as a cultural mediator between the Indigenous peoples and the Portuguese is highlighted in the historiography of Indigenous women for its historical importance, comparable to those of Bartira, Catarina Paraguaçu and Clara Camarão.
