English: Urarina society and culture have received exceptionally little attention in the burgeoning ethnographic literature of the region, and only sporadic references in the encyclopedic genre of Peruvian Amazonia. Accounts of the Urarina peoples are limited to the data reported by Castillo, by the racist information relayed by the German ethnologist G. Tessmann in his magnum opus Die Indianer Nordost-Peru, and to the erratic and idiosyncratic observations of missionaries and contemporary adventure seekers.
Español: El pueblo urarina (shimaku, shimacu, itukali); es una nación indígena de la amazonia peruana que habita territorios de la provincia de Loreto de la cuenca del río Chambira (afluente del Marañón). Hablan una lengua propia, el urarina, que es hablado por menos de 5 mil personas. Desde el punto de vista lingüístico el urarina es una lengua aislada.
