The junction of the Rivers Klamatl and Trinity gives us the locality

for--

IV. THE LANGUAGES AKIN TO THE WEITSPEK.--The Weitspek itself is spoken

at the junction, but its dialects of the Weyot and Wishosk extend far

into Humboldt County, where they are, probably, the prevailing forms of

speech, being used on the Mad River, and the parts about Cape Mendocino.

The Weyot and Wishosk are mere dialects of the same language. From the

Weitspek they differ much more than they do from each other. It is in

the names of the parts of the body where the chief resemblances lie.

V. THE MENDOCINO (?) GROUP.--This is the name suggested for the

_Choweshak_, _Batemdaikai_, _Kulanapo_, _Yukai_, and _Khwaklamayu_

forms of speech collectively.

1, 2. The Choweshak and Batemdaikai are spoken on Eel River, and in the

direction of the southern branches of the Weitspek group, with which

they have affinities.

3, 4, 5. The _Kulanapo_ is spoken about Clear Lake, the _Yukai_ on

Russian River. These forms of speech, closely allied to each other,

are also allied to the so-called Northern Indians of Baer's Beiträge,

Northern meaning to the north of the settlement of Ross. The particular

tribe of which we have a vocabulary called themselves _Khwakhlamayu_.
