I would be very interested in knowing what the evidence is that the name "Seri" comes from Opata. Claims that it is from this or that language have been impossible to verify in the past. Probably it does come from some Utoaztecan language, but I personally have never seen the data to support claims in the past.

The Oxford English Dictionary claims that the name comes from Opata, but I don't know what evidence they based that choice on. They don't even give the Opata source, instead giving the Papago cognate. --Ptcamn 17:50, 10 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

The Last of the Seris (Book) edit

A 1939 book, The Last of the Seris, is accessible via the Internet Archive's Sonny Bono Memorial Collection.

It has a fair amount of first hand accounts and ancient lore from Seri individuals. Not sure if anyone wants to mine it for info, or just drop it into the external links section.

Cannibalism edit

In the sixties, Sunset Magazine put forth a book that described this tribe as cannibalistic. I don’t see anything in the notes. Looking to see if anyone can confirm. 166.205.87.26 (talk) 20:58, 26 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
