Cahíta is an umbrella term for several Indigenous peoples of Mexico in the West Coast states of Sonora and Sinaloa. The term includes the Yaqui, Mayo, and Tehueco peoples. Early Jesuit missionaries kept detailed documentation about these people in the colonial era.
The Cáhita numbered approximately 40,000 in the 20th century.
