This book explores the linguistic and biological relationship between the Aleuts of coastal southwest Alaska and the Utians of coastal central California. Both groups speak languages diverging in the Middle Holocene Period from a common parent language. During this period, the Utians migrated by watercraft to the San Francisco Bay.
