The Aimoré (Aymore Aimboré) are one of several South American peoples of eastern Brazil called Botocudo in Portuguese (from botoque a plug) in allusion to the wooden disks or tembetás worn in their lips and ears. Some called themselves Nac-nanuk or Nac-poruk meaning sons of the soil. The last Aimoré group to retain their language are the Krenak.
