ulliri

Ulliri is a toponym used in the Andean region of South America. The name appears in several geographic settings, including mountains, hills, and settlements, in areas where Quechua and Aymara languages are spoken. Because of regional variation in pronunciation and spelling, Ulliri can appear in multiple renderings in maps and documents.

The etymology of Ulliri is linked to indigenous languages of the Andes, but the exact meaning is not uniform across regions. As a proper name, Ulliri is generally treated as a label for a place rather than a descriptive term, and its sense can differ from one locality to another.

In cartographic sources, Ulliri is encountered as part of compound place names, often alongside descriptors that indicate location, landscape, or administrative divisions. The occurrence of Ulliri in multiple places means that any reference should be clarified with regional context to identify the specific feature or community being described.

Beyond geography, Ulliri may also appear in cultural or genealogical contexts as a personal or clan name within Andean communities, reflecting the region’s linguistic heritage. Researchers seeking precise identifications should consult regional gazetteers, local authorities, or indigenous-language sources to distinguish among different Ulliri locations.
