Yurí is an extinct language of the Amazon previously spoken along a stretch of the Caquetá river in the Brazillian Amazon, extending slightly into Colombia. Very little is know about this language. Kaufman (1994:62) says that there is lexical evidence to support grouping Yurí with Ticuna in a Ticuna-Yurí language family.
