On the tip from David Sanchez (thanks), I went to Mark Rosefelder's page and
located the following information:
1. Numbers 1, 2 and 3 are found in the section, Penutian/ Californian/
Yokutsan (I mistakenly gave the first number as "yot". After reexamining the
manuscript, I see that it is "yet"
2. Number 6: Penutian/ Californian/ Miwok-Castanoan/ Castanoan/ Northern
3. Numbers 8, 9, and 10: Penutian/ Californian/ Miwok-Castanoan/ Miwok/
Eastern/ Plains+
4. I can't find the numbers 4, 5, and 7.
This is from a colonial manuscript found recently in Zacatecas. It is a very
short (6-7 pages) eclesiastical document in an indigenous language with a
short Spanish translated vocabulary of body parts and questions (¿Cuántas
veces? ¿Qué quieres? ¿Qué te duele?) at the end.
