Shoshonean languages
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shoshonean is a subfamily of the Uto-Aztecan languages. The Shoshone are the core tribe proper. Some linguists place the Shoshonean Stock into a greater group called Uto-Aztecan. The tribes lived from around the area of the Great Basin southwards into Northern Mexico and westwards into Southwestern California to the Pacific Ocean.
Other principal tribes are the Hopi, Banak, Piute, Serrano, Mono, Comanche, Pahvant, Ute, Kawai or Cahuilla, Paviotso, Panamint, and Chemehuevi.
