A common error is that there was one Native American language. In actuality, there were possibly a thousand languages spoken in the Americas before the arrival of Europeans - around 250 in the present territory of the United States alone.
In addition, these languages showed wonderful variety between one another. A trio of persons from three areas a hundred miles apart might very likely have been completely incapable to communicate by speech. There was, though, a sign language used in some areas to allow communication between those of different tribes. This is defined in detail in William Clark's book, The Indian Sign Language.
