==Classification== [[File:George Catlin - Chee-a-ex-e-co, Daughter of Deer without a Heart - 1985.66.310 - Smithsonian American Art Museum.jpg|thumb|''Cheeaexeco, a Yuchi woman,'' painted by [[George Catlin]], 1838]] Yuchi is classified as a [[language isolate]], because it is not known to be related to any other language. Various linguists have claimed, however, that the language has a distant relationship with the [[Siouan languages|Siouan family]]: [[Edward Sapir|Sapir]] in 1921 and 1929, [[Mary Haas|Haas]] in 1951 and 1964, Elmendorf in 1964, Rudus in 1974, and [[James Crawford (linguist)|Crawford]] in 1979.<ref>{{cite book |author-link=Marianne Mithun |last=Mithun |first=Marianne |title=The Languages of Native North America |location=Cambridge |publisher=Cambridge University Press |year=2001}}</ref>
