Millcayac (Milykayak) was one of the Warpean languages. [1] It was native to Cuyo in Argentina, but was displaced to Chile in the late 16th century. Luis de Valdivia wrote a grammar, vocabulary and religious texts. [2] The people became Mestizo and lost their language soon after. [ citation needed ]
