Abkhaz-Abaza: Abkhaz, Sadskzo Divisions, the Ethnic groups named Ahibga, Art, Baga, Goch', Tsanda, and Tsvykdzhi are listed as text on the original map and are represented here as text labels representing an approximate geographical location; the same is the case for the Adyghe, Western Circassian Dividison in the Adyghe (dialect unspecified) regions for the following ethnic groups: Bzhedugh, Cherchenay,Khegaki, Natekuay, X'imisch.

Map labels will appear by zooming in level from the default (zoom level of 1:433K). In the Abkhaz language family family, further divisions within dialects here designated as subdialects It should also be noted that populated places are only places indicated in the Atlas of the Caucasian languages and do not represent an exhaustive list of populated places for this region; these places will appear on this map two levels in from the default (zoom level of 1:216K). This map can be compared with the Abkhazia - the language situation in the early 21st century map.
