The 1995 Ethnologue lists an estimate of 594 speakers of the Marúbo. According to demographics illustrated on the Socioambiental web site ... in 2000, there were 1,043 Marúbo, living in four locations. This figure is more likely the accurate figure, since it is based on ongoing demographic research. This research began in 1975 and has continued at least through the year 2000. Due to population growth, the actual population total is likely even higher. (pp.9-10)

According to the Marubos, the current-day Marubo ethnic group is composed of several tribes who spoke mutually intelligible Panoan languages ... and the language of one of these groups (tje Shainawabo people) is what the Marubos speak now, and a second language was in part retained as a ceremonial/shamanic language, called Asan ikiki by the Marubos ... However, the oral history does not match the linguistic facts, as Asan ikiki seems to actually be Marubo with substituted words, which may or may not originate from a sister language. (p.47)
