Barkul (Bo-Rukul) is a Plateau language of Barkul village, Bokkos LGA, Plateau State, Nigeria. The two dialects, Bo and Rukul, each with 500–1,000 speakers, are notably distinct.[2] The classification of Barkul is unclear, but it appears to be closest to Fyam and Horom.
Ethnologue (22nd ed.) lists Barkul, Mabo, Mwa, and Richa villages in Bokkos LGA.
