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 in 1867. [2]

Classification

Kaufman (1994) [3] placed it in his Río Negro branch, but this is not followed in Aikhenvald (1999). [4] It is grouped with Pasé in the Japurá-Colômbia branch by Ramirez and França (2019). [5]
