Chibcha is an extinct language of Colombia, formerly spoken by the Muisca people, a complex indigenous civilization of South America of what today is the country of Colombia. As early as 1580 the authorities in Charcas, Quito, and Santa Fe de Bogotá mandated the establishment of schools in native languages and required that priests study these languages before ordination. In 1606 the entire clergy was ordered to provide religious instruction in Chibcha.
