Yumana (Jumana, Xomana, Ximana[1]) is an extinct, poorly attested, and unclassified Arawakan language. It is attested only in a wordlist from Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius and Johann Baptist von Spix published in 1867.[2] The Jumana people are thought to reside in the Rio Puré National Park, alongside the Pasé and Carabayo (Yuri).[3]
Classification
Kaufman (1994)[4] placed it in his Río Negro branch, but this is not followed in Aikhenvald (1999).[5] It is grouped with Pasé in the Japurá-Colômbia branch by Ramirez and França (2019).[6]
