The Wochua (singular Achua) was the endonym of a pygmy people[1] of the forests of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, south of the Welle River. They were first described in the Western world in 1880–1883 by Wilhelm Junker.[1] They may be the same as the Kango Mbuti, who are called Batchua (the root is Twa, pronounced Cwa [tʃwa] in Congo); they are reported to have associated with the Maigo (patrons of the Kango), the Momfu (patrons of the Efé, but Wochua is a Bantu term), and the Mabode (unidentified).
