Zimshian...
"Zimshian, Tsimshian, or Chimmezyan,
is spoken by descendants
of several small Indian tribes who originally lived along the
Skeena and Nass rivers of British Columbia, and on the adjacent
coast and coastal islands. They were culturally related to the
Tlingit and Haida. Their tongue
was spoken in several dialects,
the main dialectal diversions of which are the ‘Zimshian
Proper’
of the Skeena and coastal islands, and the Nishga dialect of the
Nass River area (Selections in
Nishga published in 1890 and
1897, Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge,
London, translated by James B. McCullagh, Church MS), and
the Gitksian tongue. There are
now more than 5,000 Zimshian
Indians living on reservations in British Columbia and
Alaska." --1000 Tongues, 1972 [Info only]
