Ukaan (also Ikan Anyaran Auga or Kakumo) is an undocumented and sparsely described Niger–Congo language or dialect cluster of uncertain affiliation.Roger Blench suspects based on wordlists that it may be closest to the (East) Benue–Congo languages (or equivalently the most divergent of the Benue–Congo languages). Blench (2012) states that noun-classes and concord make it look Benue-Congo but evidence is weak.The name Anyaran is from the town of Anyaran where it is spoken.
