Art. VIII.—The Ugor Branch of the Ural-Altaic Family of Languages

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 March 2011

Extract

Whether the division and classification of linguistic affinities will always remain such as are propounded at the present day, or whether in due course and as a result of further research, this arrangement will have to make way for other conclusions, is not the question intended to be discussed here. The object of this paper is merely an attempt to bring together some historical, geographical, and literary databased upon more recent investigations, referring chiefly to one single linguistic branch, namely, the Ugor division of the Ural-Altaic family of languages,- to point out the habitat and numbers belonging to the various tribes classified under that head, and to bring down, as far as possible to our own day, the history of linguistic researches in that special field of study.
