Shoshoni Vocabulary Resources

This post is dedicated to the Shoshoni language resources available online. I’ll provide the cover page image for the texts with links to the online source. The 5 texts included in this post are the earliest online vocabularies I have found so far. They are English language translations, and I’ll post any French and Spanish vocabularies as soon as I locate them online. If you have any early language resources for the Shoshoni, please comment with the source or send me an email.
