I'm under the impression that these are a distinct tribe from the Quechua of Peru. Gringo300 05:20, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yes, the Quechan and Yuma are identical, and the Yuman article should be merged into the Quechan one. Let me know if you'd like me to do so. RhymeNotStutter 02:37, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

what special tools did the yuma indian use?

They used all different things — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alchemykid (talk • contribs) 16:17, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Reference

Greeting. Would like to propose adding the following article as an external link. It talks about "Yuman Mythology". I think it is good reference material. The article can be found at - Yuman Mythology

Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 13:42, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Quechan people → Quechan – Target title is currently only redirect to current title, created on May 17, 2011 by Kwami in moving "Quechan" to "Quechan people", without comment or discussion. The standalone title had stood since the first version of the article by fredbauder on June 19, 2002, almost nine years of stability at that title before it was arbitrarily moved. As per closures of similar RMs in recent days by Cuchulainn and others, "consensus has spoken" that the people are the PRIMARYTOPIC, as stated by him here re the Northern Tutchone title. Guidelines such as Wikipedia:Article titles#Use commonly recognizable names and the guideline Wikipedia:Naming conventions (ethnicities and tribes) call for this move, as does WP:Conciseness and WP:Precision, WP:NCDAB and more.. Skookum1 (talk) 09:25, 11 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support. In cases where the requested move simply eliminates the word "people", and the destination title is already a simple redirect to the current title, it is clear that guidelines favoring both precision and conciseness support the move. Xoloz (talk) 02:14, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

First Contact

In the article about Hernando de Alarcón it says he had contact with the Yuma speaking indians, some 200 years before Juan Bautista de Anza — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C4:AA0C:2700:9D79:1576:565A:5452 (talk) 13:10, 30 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
