Chicomuceltec (also Chikomuselteko or Chicomucelteco; archaically, Cotoque) is a Mayan language formerly spoken in the region
defined by the municipios of Chicomuselo, Mazapa de Madero, and Amatenango de la Frontera in Chiapas, Mexico, as well as some
nearby areas of Guatemala. By the 1970s–80s it had become extinct, with recent reports in Mayanist literature finding that
there are no living native speakers. Communities of contemporary Chicomucelteco descendants, numbering approximately 1500
persons in Mexico and 100 in Guatemala are Spanish speakers. Chicomuceltec was formerly sometimes called Cakchiquel Mam, although
it is only distantly related to the Cakchiquel or Mam, being much closer to Wastek (Huastec). |
