  Derivation: 
  From 
  the 
  Aleut 
  word 
  kolosli, 
  or 
  more 
  properly, 
  kaluga, 
  

   meaning 
  "dish,'' 
  the 
  allusion 
  being 
  to 
  the 
  dish-shaped 
  lip 
  ornaments. 
  

  

  This 
  family 
  was 
  based 
  by 
  Gallatin 
  upon 
  the 
  Koluschen 
  tribe 
  (the 
  

   Tshinkitani 
  of 
  Marchand), 
  " 
  who 
  inhabit 
  the 
  islands 
  and 
  the 
  adja- 
  

   cent 
  coast 
  from 
  the 
  sixtieth 
  to 
  the 
  fifty-fifth 
  degree 
  of 
  north 
  lati- 
  

   tude." 
  

  

  In 
  the 
  Koluschan 
  family, 
  Gallatin 
  observes 
  that 
  the 
  remote 
  analo- 
  

   gies 
  to 
  the 
  Mexican 
  tongue 
  to 
  be 
  found 
  in 
  several 
  of 
  the 
  northern 
  

   tribes, 
  as 
  the 
  Kinai, 
  are 
  more 
  marked 
  than 
  in 
  any 
  other. 
  

  

  The 
  boundaries 
  of 
  this 
  family 
  as 
  given 
  by 
  Gallatin 
  are 
  substan- 
  

   tially 
  in 
  accordance 
  with 
  our 
  present 
  knowledge 
  of 
  the 
  subject. 
  

   The 
  southern 
  boundary 
  is 
  somewhat 
  indeterminate 
  owing 
  to 
  the 
  

   fact, 
  ascertained 
  by 
  the 
  census 
  agents 
  in 
  1880, 
  that 
  the 
  Haida 
  tribes 
  

   extend 
  somewhat 
  farther 
  north 
  than 
  was 
  formerly 
  supposed 
  and 
  

   occupy 
  the 
  southeast 
  half 
  of 
  Prince 
  of 
  Wales 
  Island. 
  About 
  lati- 
  

   tude 
  56°, 
  or 
  the 
  mouth 
  of 
  Portland 
  Canal, 
  indicates 
  the 
  southern 
  

   limit 
  of 
  the 
  family, 
  and 
  60°, 
  or 
  near 
  the 
  mouth 
  of 
  Atna 
  River, 
  the 
  

   northern 
  limit. 
  Until 
  recently 
  they 
  have 
  been 
  supposed 
  to 
  be 
  exclu-
