Abstract
In this paper I survey the II-series agreement prefixes of the Muskoge an language family and propose a new reconstruction of this system of prefixes for Proto-Muskogean, extending the analysis of Booker (1980). The proposed reconstruction has significant implications for the clas sification of the Muskogean languages.
