Moseten

Moseten, or the Moseten-Chimane dialect continuum, is an isolate of the Bolivian lowlands, spoken along the Beni River by Tsimane and Moseten villagers; its Covendo, Santa Ana and Chimane varieties remain mutually intelligible. Jesuit and Franciscan missionaries evangelized these communities, and its proposed links to the Chon languages, like shared words with Puquina and Yuracare, suggest contact, not proven kinship.
