  This 
  name 
  was 
  proposed 
  by 
  Latham 
  with 
  evident 
  hesitation. 
  He 
  

   says 
  of 
  it: 
  " 
  How 
  far 
  this 
  will 
  eventually 
  turn 
  out 
  to 
  be 
  a 
  conven- 
  

   ient 
  name 
  for 
  the 
  group 
  (or 
  how 
  far 
  the 
  group 
  itself 
  will 
  be 
  real), 
  

   is 
  uncertain." 
  Under 
  it 
  lie 
  places 
  two 
  vocabularies, 
  one 
  from 
  the 
  

   Upper 
  Sacramento 
  and 
  the 
  other 
  from 
  Mag 
  Redings 
  in 
  Shasta 
  

   County. 
  The 
  head 
  of 
  Putos 
  Creek 
  is 
  given 
  as 
  headquarters 
  for 
  the 
  

   language. 
  Recent 
  investigations 
  have 
  served 
  to 
  fully 
  confirm 
  the 
  

   validity 
  of 
  the 
  family. 
  

  

  GEOGRAPHIC 
  DISTRIBUTION. 
  

  

  The 
  territory 
  of 
  the 
  Copehan 
  family 
  is 
  bounded 
  on 
  the 
  north 
  by 
  

   Mount 
  Shasta 
  and 
  the 
  territory 
  of 
  the 
  Sastean 
  and 
  Lutuamian 
  

   families, 
  on 
  the 
  east 
  by 
  the 
  territory 
  of 
  the 
  Palaihnihau, 
  Yanan, 
  and 
  

   Pujunan 
  families, 
  and 
  on 
  the 
  south 
  by 
  the 
  bays 
  of 
  San 
  Pablo 
  and 
  

   Suisun 
  and 
  the 
  lower 
  waters 
  of 
  the 
  Sacramento. 
  

  

  The 
  eastern 
  boundary 
  of 
  the 
  territory 
  begins 
  about 
  5 
  miles 
  east 
  

   of 
  Mount 
  Shasta, 
  crosses 
  Pit 
  River 
  a 
  little 
  east 
  of 
  Squaw 
  Creek, 
  and 
  

   reaches 
  to 
  within 
  10 
  miles 
  of 
  the 
  eastern 
  bank 
  of 
  the 
  Sacramento 
  at 
  

   Redding. 
  From 
  Redding 
  to 
  Chico 
  Creek 
  the 
  boundary 
  is 
  about 
  10 
  

   miles 
  east 
  of 
  the 
  Sacramento. 
  From 
  Chico 
  downward 
  the 
  Puju- 
  

   nan 
  family 
  encroaches 
  till 
  at 
  the 
  mouth 
  of 
  Feather 
  River 
  it 
  occupies
