Former Capital City of Kanindé

Canindé, D.C. was the capital and federal district of the United Kingdom of Kanindé. D.C. is the abbreviation for District of Canindé, where the city is located. The city of Canindé and the District of Canindé are coextensive with each other, governed by a single government, which is unique in the country, and for this reason, they are commonly considered the same administrative entity.

The word Canindé comes from the Tupi-Guarani kanindé, and has several meanings:

• The tribe of missionary Indians who originally inhabited the banks of the Banabuiú and Quixeramobim rivers;
• A large tribe of Tarairiús, who lived in the central region of Ceará in the hinterlands of Quixadá, Canindé and Alto Banabuiú (Quixeramobim);
• According to Paulino Nogueira: a species of macaw with yellow plumage, called guacamaio, or a parrot (arararaúna).
• Its original name was São Francisco das Chagas de Canindé, later changed to Canindé.
