There are several reasons why none of these names have been recognized on the map, some of which are given in the notes following. In some instances the names have reference to villages in wliich the language spoken was one already mentioned, and marked on the map. In other cases there is no evidence that the people named spoke a distinct language or dialect. In some instances in which it is stated the dialect was distinct, it is impossible, from the evidence, to classify it or to determine that it should be placed in the list of real unclassified languages. The first and largest portion of the names is from Orozco y Berra’s list of tribes (1:67-76); the second portion is from his list of languages (1:62-66), for which he presents no tribal names, while the third part contains tribal names not mentioned 8347°—Cull. 44—11 3
