spoken, by Indians living in the sierras about the headwaters of the 
Changuinaula. If the supposition that they speak a Doraskean dia- 
lect be correct, the fact tends to confirm Pinart’s suggestion that 
the Changuina formerly occupied the valley of the Changuinaula, 
the river receiving its name, as Pittier (9) also says, from the 
Indians. The latter author, however, asserts that it is a Mosquito 
name. 
Changuina.—All that is known in regard to the Indians speaking 
this dialect is that Pinart obtained his vocabulary from some three 
or four Changuina Indians living at Bugava on the Pacific side. 
Gabb (487) says it was reported to him that a part of the tribe still 
lived on the headwaters of the Changuinaula, but that ‘their very 
existence is known only by vague reports of their savage neighbors.” 
It is possible that these were not Changuina but Talamanca Tndians, 
otherwise they must be identified with the Chaliva. 
Chumula.—Nothing is known in regard to this dialect except that 
information respecting it was cpa by Pinart from Indians living 
at Caldera and Potrero in the interior. 
Dorask (proper).—The last Indian of this tribe died in 1882 
(Pinart 2:2). The vocabulary given by this author was taken from 
a manuscript of Padre Blas José Franco, obtained at Gualaca in the 
interior. Dorask (or Doracho, as sometimes written) does not appear 
to be a name mentioned by the early authors; at least Bancroft, 
who certainly made a careful examination of their writings (be our 
opinion of his conclusions what it may), says (11, 794), “The Tules, 
Dariens, Cholos, Dorachos, Savanerics, Cunas, and Bayamos are new 
names not mentioned by any of the older writers.”’ What particular 
section the Dorask proper originally occupied is therefore unknown. 
Gualaca.—Knowledge of this dialect rests on precisely the same 
evidence as that regarding the Dorask proper, namely, the vocabu- 
lary of Padre Blas José Franco as given by Pinart (2). It was 
obtained at the same place—Gualaca in the interior, where Sapper 
locates his interior group. 
Teluskie(?)—This is given by Brinton (8: 175) as one of the dia- 
ects of his Changuina stock—here the Doraskean group. He gives 
as the locality, ‘‘near Rio Puan,” a branch of Rio Telorio. The 
writer has been unable to find the authority on which this habitat 
is given, though he has access to all the works to which Bancroft 
refers in this connection. Pinart (5:118) merely mentions the name 
without particulars, nor is any vocabulary available. Possibly 
Teluskie is only another name for Chaliva. 
GUAYMIE 
This name is here used as employed by Pinart and Adam, that is, 
rather as designating a group, or subfamily, including several dialects, 
than as the name of a language. According to Pinart (3:2) there
