Aroaqui language

Aroaqui (Aroaki) is an extinct Arawakan language of Brazil that was spoken in the lower Rio Negro region, probably on the banks of the Cuieiras River.

[1][2] Some Aroaqui groups were also located around the mouth of the Amazon River near Macapá.

[1]: 14 A word list of Aroaqui was collected by Johann Natterer (1832) in Airão.

[1] Aroaqui and Parawana are closely related, and may be the same language.
