Map redrawn and modified from the map of North American Indian languages appearing in Goddard (1996) and as Goddard (1999).

• language areas are not as well-defined as this map would suggest: borders are often fuzzy and arbitrary and the entire language area may not be fully occupied by language speakers.
• many details, especially of rivers, lakes, & islands, have been omitted.

Goddard (1996, 1999) is a map of the entire North American continent and thus contains compromises concerning the full extent indigenous people's homelands. This is certainly the case with the Tlingit peoples (cf. also Chiricahua Apache). The majority of Tlingit-speaking peoples were coastal — this is shown in Goddard's maps. However, there were also Tlingit peoples further inland (called by such names as Inland Tlingit, Teslin, Atlin, Carcross). This inland area is not shown on Goddard's maps as the area overlaps with neighboring peoples (?). Since this map is currently based solely on Goddard (1996, 1999), it also does not display this area. This may be adjusted some time in future.

At this time the reader is recommended to compare this map with others listed in the bibliography below, esp.

• (Fig. 2) "Late 19th-early 20th Century territory with modern reserves" in McClellan (1981:471),
• overview map of the Subarctic culture area in Helm (1981:viii-xi).
• (Fig. 1) "Territories and former settlements of the Tlingit" in De Laguna (1990:204),
• overview map of the Northwest Coast culture area in Suttles (1990:viii-ix), and
• also concerning info about Inland Tlingit territory, see McClellan (1981:469-471).

note about neighbors:

The Tlingit peoples are surrounded by mostly Athabaskan speakers.

• Ahtna, Southern Tutchone, Tagish, Tahltan (proper), and Tsetsaut are Athabaskan (of the Na-Dene family).
• Eyak, a northern neighbor, is a Na-Dene language (although not Athabaskan).
• Nass-Gitksan is a Tsimshian language (which is not related to the Na-Dene family).
• Haida, who shares an island with Tlingit speakers, is a language isolate, unrelated to Na-Dene or Tsimshian families.

Tlingit itself is Na-Dene, related to Eyak and the Athabaskan languages.

to do

• show Inland Tlingit (see de Laguna 1991 and ANLC maps)
• show mixed Tlingit-Eyak area from Yakutat area to Cape Spencer (cf. ANLC map)
• label rivers and major lakes
• label major villages and towns
  • Yakutat, Hoonah, Haines, Juneau, Sitka, Angoon, Wrangell, Kake, Klawock, Ketchikan
• possibly add borders of major Tlingit kwáan divisions?
  • see Hope's Traditional Tlingit Country map
