Description: Almost 90 of the 300 indigenous languages spoken in North America were in California, making the state a very complex, linguistically diverse area. Researchers have attempted to delineate contact-period Native California linguistic and tribal boundaries using oral history, ethnographic records, place-names, linguistics, population density, geography, Spanish and mission archives, and archaeology. According to Golla, a defining feature of the California language area was "the absence of congruence between the linguistic and sociopolitical" (Golla 2011:2). Rather, the defining social unit was a "village community" or "tribelet" (Kroeber 1925, 1936) consisting of a few hundred individuals living within a demarcated territory. Language areas were almost always larger than any tribelet or group of tribelets and did not define political divisions or imply a common culture (Golla 2011:3). In addition, language and sociopolitical boundaries were living entities, constantly in flux. Golla, therefore, attempted to define sociolinguistic areas that would serve as "fossilized traces of past migrations and expansions" (2011:1). Additional Details about these Native California Ethno-Linguistic Areas can be found at the following web site: https://roadmaptoresearch.dot.ca.gov/about-map-layers.html.
