The term Galindian is sometimes ascribed to two separate Baltic languages, both of which where peripheral dialects:

  • First, a Western Baltic language referred to as West Galindian; and
  • Second, a Baltic language previously spoken in Mozhaysk region (present day Russia), referred to as East Galindian[1]

Proposed relation

Based on the common name used for the two people by ancient authors, some scientists propose a common origine of the two people and languages.[2]: 309 [3] In order to prove this hypothesis, they investigate common features between Old Prussian/West Galindian and East Galindian.[2]: 309–310 

West Galindian

Distribution of the Baltic tribes, circa 1200 CE (boundaries are approximate).

West Galindian is the poorly attested extinct Baltic language of the Galindians previously spoken in what is today North-eastern Poland and thought to have been a dialect of Old Prussian,[2]: 290  or a Western Baltic language similar to Old Prussian.[4] There are no extant writings in Galindian.

East Galindian

Europe in 7–8th century – Baltic tribes are shown in dark purple. Eastern Galindians can be seen within the Slavic territory.

East Galindian is the poorly attested extinct Baltic language of the Balts living in the Protva Basin in present-day Russia.[2]: 307
