AbstractThis map shows the distribution of Aboriginal peoples at the height of
British rule when the Hudson's Bay Company dominated the fur trade. Ethnohistorical societies are identified on the map by the major
linguistic family to which they belong. Ethnohistorical societies are Aboriginal
peoples that were known by name and location to Europeans early in the nineteenth
century. A linguistic family code identifies each ethnohistorical society on
the map and is used to reference specific information for each ethnohistorical
society.
