Andean historical linguistics has been responsible for determining whether the laryngeal consonants of southern Aymara are native to Quechua or Aymara. In this sense, knowing the origin of these consonants is taken as a criterion that adds to the clarification of the debate that exists between these two languages, with respect to the grammatical and lexical similarities that they present. Within this debate, two positions are noted: that of genetic kinship and that of linguistic convergence. In this sense, from the bibliographic review of these studies, in this article, I evidence that linguistic convergence is the position that has more reliable data. In summary, from this literature review, I provide an outline of the state of the matter of the laryngeal consonants of the southern Aymara.
