The Cuitlatec (alternatively Cuitlateco, Cuitlateca) were an Indigenous people of Mexico.[1] They lived in the Río Balsas region of Guerrero state in Mexico's Pacific coast region. Their native Cuitlatec language is generally considered to be a language isolate.[2] As a linguistic group and ethnic identity, Cuitlatec is considered extinct.
