Huamoé (Wamoe), a.k.a. Uamué, Uman, or Atikum, is an extinct language of Brazil that is too poorly attested to classify. The Pankararú language is spoken just to the south. It is also spelled Huamuê, Huamoi, Uame, Wamoé. Alternate names are Umã and Aticum (Atikum, Araticum). There has been speculation that Huamoé was a Kariri language.
