Relating to or characteristic of the Chitimacha people, their culture, or language.
From Chitimacha plus the adjectival suffix -an, following English patterns for creating adjectives from ethnic or cultural group names.
Adding '-an' to ethnic group names (like Chitimacha → Chitimachan) is how English creates descriptors, but indigenous peoples often prefer their own language terms, reminding us that these English-ified forms are colonial impositions.
