The Huilliche[wi.ˈʝi.tʃe],Huiliche or Huilliche-Mapuche are the southern partiality of the Mapuche macroethnic group of Chile. Located in the Zona Sur,they inhabit both Futahuillimapu and,as the Cunco subgroup,the north half of ChiloéIsland. The Huilliche are the principal indigenous people of those regions. According to Ricardo E. Latcham the term Huilliche started to be used in Spanish after the second founding of Valdivia in 1645,adopting the usage of the Mapuches of Araucanía for the southern Mapuche tribes. Huilliche means 'southerners' A genetic study showed significant affinities between Huilliches and indigenous peoples east of the Andes,which suggests but does not prove a partial origin in present-day Argentina.
