Tinguaro (died December 1495, in La Laguna) was a Guanche sigoñe (Template:Translation) of Tenerife, also known as Chimechia and Achimenchia Tinguaro.

Tinguaro was in charge of the area known as Acentejo. Half-brother of the mencey (Template:Translation) Bencomo, Tinguaro led the Guanche forces to victory against the invading Castilians in the First Battle of Acentejo. He fell at the Battle of Aguere, a crushing defeat for the original population of the island, resulting in the conquest of the island by the Castilians.Template:Sfn
