Karankawa is the extinct, unclassified language of the Texas coast, where the Karankawa people migrated between the mainland and the barrier islands. It was not closely related to other known languages in the area, many of which are also poorly attested, and may have been a language isolate. A couple of hundred words are preserved, collected in 1698, 1720, and 1828; in the 1880s, three lists were collected from non-Karankawa who knew some words. Karankawa has sometimes been included with neighboring languages in a Coahuiltecan family, but that is now thought to be spurious. The meaning of the term Karankawa is not known, it is believed that could have meant something like “breeders of dogs”, a likelihood hypothesis, since they are known that the Karankawas possessed canids. This language was mainly attested by French explorers, like the brothers Pierre and Jean-Baptiste Talon, who called this language “clamcoche”, and Albert Gatschet, who interviewed the last speakers of Karankawa in Texas, from 1836 to 1884.
