CAVESPEAK:
A DICTIONARY OF CAVESE

Archaeo-cinemalinguistic researchers have collected evidence of primitive language(s) used by the tribes of One Million BC, Valley of the Dragons, One Million Years B.C., When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth, and Caveman. The results of their labors are recorded here. No attempt has been made to distinguish different tribal languages; hence the redundancy in some cases of key cave-living concepts.
