At one time Chimila was grouped with the Malibu languages, but then Chimila became classified as a Chibchan language. Julian Steward, in the 1950 ''Handbook of South American Indians'', reports a communication from Gerardo Reichel-Dolmatoff that he considered Chimila to be one of the Arawakan languages, and would thus be expected to be like Tairona, one of the Chibchan languages. Chimila-derived names "Cesar", the name of both the Cesar River and the Cesar Department, is an adaptation from the Chimila word ''Chet-tzar'' or ''Zazare'' ("calm water") into Spanish. ''Guatapurí'' derives from the Chimila for "cold water", and provides the name of the Guatapurí River The Guatapurí River, or Rio Guatapurí in Spanish, is a river that flows from the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta into the Cesar River in northern Colombia by the city of Valledupar.
