The Hupa language (Spring 2010)

Hupa, traditionally spoken in Hoopa Valley along the lower Trinity River in present-day Humboldt County, is a member of the Athabaskan language family, one of the largest in North America. Chilula and Whilkut, considered dialects of Hupa, were spoken by people living along Redwood Creek to the west of Hoopa Valley. Hupa territory is adjacent to that of Yurok and Karuk to the north, Wiyot to the west, Nongatl (Eel River Athabaskan) to the south, and Shasta and Chimariko to the east.
