"The evidence for Eastern Algonquian as a genetic subgroup."

Only Eastern Algonquian constitutes a true genetic subgroup.

The first trading partners of the New Netherlanders were the Algonquian who lived in the area.

A complex series of phonological and morphological innovations define Eastern Algonquian as a subgroup.

The Algonquian of New York.

Virginia Algonquian may refer to:

Eastern Algonquian included Massachusett, spoken on the coast of Massachusetts.

Historians believe that the Algonquian would sink their canoes to the bottom of the lake for safekeeping until they would return the following fishing and hunting season.

Within the Algonquian family, only Eastern Algonquian constitutes a separate genetic subgroup.

This was a subsistence culture that arrived after the glaciers retreated somewhere around 15,000 years ago and the rise of glacial Lake Algonquian, 4-8,000 years ago.

The hypothetical common ancestor language from which the Eastern Algonquian languages descend is Proto-Eastern Algonquian (PEA).

Powhatan or Virginia Algonquian is an extinct language belonging to the Eastern Algonquian subgroup of the Algonquian languages.

The genetic relation of Wiyot and Yurok to Algonquian was first proposed by Edward Sapir (1913, 1915, 1923), and argued against by Algonquianist Truman Michelson (1914, 1914, 1935).

From the Algonquian languages, a genetic grouping, the Eastern Algonquian (EA) languages, diverged and spread from the Canadian Maritimes to the Carolinas.

Prior to European contact, Eastern Algonquian consisted of at least seventeen languages collectively occupying the Atlantic coast of North America and adjacent inland areas, from the Canadian Maritime provinces to North Carolina.

The languages assigned to the Eastern Algonquian group are hypothesized to descend from an intermediate common ancestor proto-language, referred to as Proto-Eastern Algonquian (PEA).

An intermediate group Delawaran that is a descendant of Proto-Eastern Algonquian consists of Mahican and Common Delaware, the latter being a further subgroup comprising Munsee Delaware and Unami Delaware.

Paul Proulx has argued that this traditional view is incorrect, and that Central Algonquian (in which he includes the Plains Algonquian languages) is a genetic subgroup, with Eastern Algonquian consisting of several different subgroups.

Eastern Algonquian is considered a genetic subgroup within the Algonquian family, that is, the Eastern Algonquian languages share a sufficient number of common innovations to suggest that they descend from a common intermediate source, Proto-Eastern Algonquian.
