The Quingnam language is a pre-Columbian language of the area that is believed to have disappeared before the beginning of the Inca Empire. Quingnam was spoken by ethnic Chimú who lived in the former territories of the Mochicas: an area north of the Chicama Chao River Valley. At the height of Chimú conquests the language was spoken extensively from the Jequetepeque River in the north to the Carabayllo (near present-day Lima) in the south.
