Brief Description:
A possible extinct language of Korea. Since it is known only from approximately thirteen placename glosses, evidence for this language is scant, and its existence is suspect. What evidence there is looks
Japonic, but it is not known whether these placenames reflect the language of the Kara tribal confederation, or possibly some more earlier
stage.
