Excerpt from Ancient History, or Annals of Kentucky, 1824: With a Survey of the Ancient Monuments of North America, and a Tabular View of the Principal Languages and Primitive Nations of the Whole Earth The following pages have appeared as an introduction to the second edition of the History of Kentucky by Humphrey Marshall Esq. - Some copies have been printed in a pamphlet form, to which the author now prefixes a Philological and Ethnological Table, abridged from an elaborate survey of about 500 languages and dialects of both Continents; reduced to 50 mother languages, (besides 25 examples of Dialects) with their principal roots for four important words. This will demonstrate those leading facts of his history relating to the derivation of American nations and languages. As a first and arduous attempt, it ought to claim the indulgence of the philologists, if any inevitable omissions or inaccuracies should be detected; but none will be found of a nature to invalidate the general results. At a future time the subject may be renewed, enlarged and rendered still more evident, in connection with a general history of the nations and monuments of America. The individuals to whom this essay will be sent, will confer a favor on the author, if they are able to communicate to him, some additional vocabularies of any language or dialect of North or South America; essential words and cardinal numbers are particularly wanted.
