The Kiliwa (Kiliwa: Ko’leeu) are an indigenous people of Mexico living in northern Baja California. Historically they occupied a territory lying between the Cochimí on the south and the Paipai on the north, and extending from San Felipe on the Gulf of California to San Quintín on the Pacific coast. Their traditional language is the Kiliwa language. The Nyakipa have sometimes been distinguished from the Kiliwa as a separate ethnolinguistic group within the southwestern portion of what is here considered Kiliwa territory. The limited linguistic evidence that is available for the Nyakipa indicates that they spoke the same language as the eastern Kiliwa. The Kiliwa Indians were hunters who inhabited northeastern Baja California. The Kiliwa lived along the eastern slope of the Sierra San Pedro Mártir and ranged down the Gulf Coast. Their habitat also extended into the Colorado Desert.
The Kiliwa live between the Cochimi and the Pai Pai in northern Baja California. While the Nakipa group is often considered separate from Kiliwa, evidence suggests that both groups spoke the same Kiliwa language. While the Kiliwa were believed to have been a large group at one point, the population had severely declined by the time of Mexican independence in 1821. Kiliwa, alternate Names: Kiliwi, Ko’lew or Quiligua (in Kiliwa: Koleeu ñaja') is a Yuman language spoken in Baja California, in the far northwest of Mexico, by the Kiliwa people. 76 people reported their language as Kiliwa in a 2020 census. However, a count in 2018 found only 4 speakers remaining. Kiliwa is a Yuman language of Mexico, considered by some linguists to be a member of the larger Hokan language family. Kiliwa is spoken today by only a few tribal elders.

Para no enfermarse de tristeza creó al hombre y sus linajes. Meltípájal (u) se acercó al "ombligo sureó", tomó agua e hizo buches que arrojados hacia los puntos cardinales formaron el sur (kosei) amarillo; el norte (kiwiniel) rojo; el este (mesép) blanco y el oeste (nié) negro. Para crear las latitudes pensó en el ombligo de arriba y creó el mils (azul) y luego el ombligo de abajo reconociéndolo como amate o café. Satisfecho de su obra Meltípájal (u) fumó mientras descansaba y con el humo se fueron formando las veredas y los caminos de la tierra y del cielo.

Kiliwa, sole member of one of the four branches of Yuman (within Cochiméi-Yuman), has under 8 fluent speakers, among some 35 members of its comunidad indígena. (census of 2000 is more accurate - reports 52 speakers) Poverty and the strictures of the kinship system have reduced the Kiliwa, from some 2,000 in the 1790s to their present numbers. They occupy a fragment of their aboriginal territory in the municipalidad de Ensenada, Baja California Norte, Mexico.
The Hadza , or Hadzabe ( Wahadzabe , in Swahili ), are a protected hunter-gatherer Tanzanian indigenous ethnic group , primarily based in Baray , an administrative ward within Karatu District in southwest Arusha Region .
