Chimakuan in South America at the Time of Contact
Chimakuan in South America at the Time of Contact

Map Description:
The areas pictured display locations of where Chimakuan languages were spoken when they were first encountered and knowledge of them was recorded. As specified in Asher and Moseley, the time of contact varied for each language; most of the coastal languages were first identified during the 16th and 17th centuries, although some languages in the interior of South America became known much more recently during the 20th century (Kaufman 2007).
This original map was made by vectorizing data from the MultiTree language database and the Atlas of the World's Languages.

Early Indian Tribes, Culture Areas and Language Stocks in Alaska (Sturtevant)
Early Indian Tribes, Culture Areas and Language Stocks in Alaska

Data Source: Early Indian Tribes, Culture Areas, and Linguistic Stocks. The National Atlas of the United States of America. Washington, D.C.: U.S. Dept. of the Interior, Geological Survey, 1970.
Map Description:
Illustrated here are the Native American tribes of Alaska and the Aleutian Islands along with their linguistic stocks, as hypothesized by Sturtevant. He notes that tribal distributions depicted are sometimes arbitrary, as the information used to determine them was gathered over a large span of time. He also states that the cultural areas which indicate "minor" tribes that share cultural traits are vaguely classified at times, and that the distribution of many cultural traits does not coincide (Sturtevant).
