History
It was spoken in the northern part of Lithuania and southern regions of Latvia in what is known as Semigallia. It is thought that it was extinct by the 16th century, with the assimilation by the Latvians[1] and Lithuanians. Semigallian is known only from references to it in documents and texts from before the 16th century.
