Each language is grouped and color-coded according to family.

An accompanying text provides background information about the distribution and classification of the languages and also features a useful classification table of the languages and language families depicted.A portable storage sleeve makes the folded study map ideal for use in the classroom, on trips, or in the field.

Colorful, attractive, accurate, and up-to-date, this map is an essential reference for anyone interested in the histories and cultures of the original inhabitants of North America.
