“…Carib languages were long thought to have emerged in the southern Amazon (Rodrigues 1985;Steinen 1894). However, a more recent internal classification by Meira (2006:200) suggests a northern origin in the Guianas (see also Heckenberger 2005;Lathrap 1970;Meira and Franchetto 2005). Regardless, the relatively close linguistic proximity among existing Carib languages suggests a relatively recent common ancestor, with perhaps only half the time depth of the Arawak or Tupi language families, estimated to have begun internal diversification more than 3,000 years ago (Payne 1991;Rodrigues 1999).…”

“…Os Kuikuro falam uma das duas variantes da língua caribe do alto Xingu (Meira e Franchetto, 2005); as outras populações de língua caribe na região são os Kalapalo, os Matipu e os Nahukwá. Essas populações vivem na bacia dos afluentes do Rio Xingu, na Amazônia meridional, no Parque Indígena do Xingu, situado no estado de Mato Grosso.…”
