Omurano Indian Language

Omurano was a language of Peru, which no longer is spoken today. There are few records of the Omurano language remaining, and its relationships to other Anazonian languages are uncertain. Some linguists believe it was a language isolate, unrelated to any other language. Others believe it may have belonged to the Zaparoan language family.
