Quechuas is the term used for several ethnic groups in South America that use a Quechua language (mainly Southern Quechua). They belong to several ethnic groups in South America, above all in Peru, Bolivia and Argentina.
The Quechuas of Ecuador call themselves and their language Kichwa, Kichwas or Quichuas. The Kichwa-speaking group of Colombia are the Ingas.
Here are some (historic) Quechua peoples:
- Inca
- Chancas (in Huancavelica, Ayacucho y Apurímac)
- Huancas (in Junín; spoke Quechua before the Incas did)
- Cañaris (in Ecuador; adopted the Quechua language from the Incas)
