Indigenous people of Brazil From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Atikum, also known as Huamuê or Uamué, are an indigenous people of Brazil that live in Bahia and Pernambuco.[2]
They have 20 villages within the Atikum Indigenous Land, and their territory is near Carnaubeira da Penha.[3]
Known as the "civilized Indians of the Umã Hills," the Arikum sought federal recognition from the Brazilian government beginning in the 1940s.[1]
Today Atikum people speak Portuguese. Formerly they spoke the Atikum language, a linguistic isolate.[2]
