Puruhá (Puruguay, Puruwá) is a poorly attested extinct language of the Marañón River basin in Ecuador which is difficult to classify, apart from being apparently related to Cañari, though it may have been Barbacoan. A grammar was reportedly written in the late 17th century; it appears to have been lost.
