Brief Description:
"Salinan is an extinct language family of the central California coast. It consisted of two closely related languages or dialect clusters, a northern one, Antoniano, primarily associated with Mission San Antonio de Padua, near Jolon in southern Monterey County, and a southern one, MigueleƱo, primarily associated with Mission San Miguel, in northern San Luis Obispo County. The last speakers of both languages died in the late 1950s or early 1960s." Victor Golla, Atlas of the World's Languages 2007 pg. 21-22
