The Akuntsu (also known as Akunt'su or Akunsu) are an indigenous people of Rondônia, Brazil. Their land is part of the Rio Omerê Indigenous Territory, a small indigenous territory which is also inhabited by a group of Kanoê. The Akuntsu were victims of a massacre perpetrated by Brazilian cattle ranchers in the 1980s and currently number just three individuals.[1][2] It is unlikely that the Akuntsu language or culture will survive after their deaths, leading several observers to describe them as victims of genocide.[3][4][5][6]
