Because of the importance of water -notably the Klamath River and its tributaries -to the Yurok, they have many ways of making reference to it. They may focus on its dimensions, its characteristics, or its nature as a medium with respect to which other entities are located or act. In addition, many actions are seen in cultural context as normally taking place under, on, or over water. The relatively elaborate morphological machinery for classifying water can also be extended to other culturally less salient entities which are seen as sharing some of its attributes (such as dimensions, uncountability, or simply being identifiable mediums).
