Campbell (2012) notes that Adelaar "presents reasonably persuasive evidence that Harákmbut and Katukinan are genetically related."[2]
Language contact
Jolkesky (2016) notes that there are lexical similarities with the Pano, Puinave-Nadahup, Tupian, and Arawakan language families due to contact.[3]
Similarities with Tupian may be indicative of an earlier origin downstream in the Madeira River interaction sphere.[3]:344
