Itucalean

ITUCALEAN, a small group of tribes of South American Indians, supposed on very insufficient evidence to constitute an independent linguistic stock. The Itucales, or Uarinas lived in north-eastern Peru on the Chambira river, a northern tributary of the Marafion between the Tigre and the Pastaza. Little or noth

ing is known of them.
