The exact time range is defined specifically per region. Data from the languages and dialects shapefile was used to make language family and language family branch shapefiles. There is also a separate shapefile with some examples of innovative language revitalization in the region. There is a supporting shapefile of Arctic places to assist when visualizing the data. The 5 shapefiles can be used together or separately. All shapefiles are intended to be used as open resources for education and research. ... |
