info

Map redrawn and modified from two maps by cartographer Roberta Bloom appearing in Mithun (1999:xviii-xxi). Additional references include Mithun (1999:606-616), Goddard (1996) (contains a very nice color map), Sturtevant (1978-present), Campbell (1997:353-376).

  • Salishan languages are in red.

This linguistic map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Salishan langs.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
