Chibcha language
Chibcha is an extinct language of Colombia, formerly spoken by the Muisca people, a complex indigenous civilization of South America of what today is the country of Colombia.
As early as 1580 the authorities in Charcas, Quito, and Santa Fe de Bogotá mandated the establishment of schools in native languages and required that priests study these languages before ordination. In 1606 the entire clergy was ordered to provide religious instruction in Chibcha. The Chibcha language declined in the 18th century, however.
In 1770, King Charles III of Spain officially banned use of the language in the region 〔 as part of a de-indigenization project. The ban remained in law until Colombia passed its constitution of 1991.
Words of ''Muysccubun'' origin are still used in the departments of Cundinamarca of which Bogotá is the capital, and Boyacá. These include ''curuba'' (a fruit), ''toche'' (a bird), ''guadua'' (a large bamboo used in construction) and ''tatacoa'' (a snake). The Muisca descendants continue many traditional ways, such as the use of certain foods, use of ''coca'' for teas and healing rituals, and other aspects of natural ways, which are a deep part of culture here.
The only public school in Colombia currently teaching Chibcha (to about 150 children) is in the town of Cota, about 20 miles by road from Bogotá. The school is named ''Jizcamox'' (healing with the hands) in Chibcha.〔(Gloria Helena Rey, "The Chibcha Culture – Forgotten, But Still Alive" ), ''Colombia'', ''Inter Press Service (IPS) News'', 30 Nov 2007, accessed 9 Nov 2010〕
