Timote also known as Cuica or Timote–Cuica was the language of the Timote–Cuica state in the Venezuelan Andes around the present city of Mérida and south of Lake Maracaibo.The language is reported to have gone extinct in the early to mid 20th century. However in 1977 it was reported that the indigenous village of Mutús in the heart of the old Timote state still spoke an indigenous language which would presumably be Timote.
