It was first documented in 1607 by Fernando de la Carrera in his Arte de La Lengva Yvnga de Los Valles del Obispado de Truxillo del Peru, con vn Confessonario, y todas las Oraciones Christianas, traducidas en la lengua, y otras cosaspublished in 1644 (Lima) but has not been spoken as a language since the 1920's and the last loan words seem to have fallen out of usage by 1960.
