Abstract
This study is primarily concerned with whether the Hadza language shows a phylogenic link to the click languages of the San and Nama peoples of southern Africa. The discussion utilizes comparisons of vocabularies, phonemes and grammatical structure to tentatively suggest a possible connection; a conclusion rejected in subsequent investigations.
