  From  Webster's  Revised  Unabridged  Dictionary  (1913)  [web1913]: 
 
  Tupian  \Tu"pi*an\,  a. 
  Designating,  or  pert.  to  a  linguistic  stock  of  South 
  American  Indians  comprising  the  most  important  Brazilian 
  tribes.  Agriculture,  pottery,  and  stone  working  were 
  practiced  by  them  at  the  time  of  the  conquest.  The  Tupi  and 
  the  Guarani  were  originally  the  most  powerful  of  the  stock, 
  which  is  hence  also  called  {Tupi-Guaranian}.
