ユト・アステカ語族に共通する類似性はJ.C.E.ブッシュマン (Johann Karl Eduard Buschmann) によって報告されているが、ブッシュマンは、アステカ語派と北方のユト・アステカ語の遺伝的なつながりを認識することができなかった。
その代わりにアステカと接触して影響を受けた二つの部族の類似性を指摘した。ダニエル・ブリントンが、ユト・アステカ語族という概念を1891年につくって、アステカの言語がそこに位置づけられるとした。
しかしながら、ブリントンのこの考え方は議論の余地が大きかったため、パウウェルが行なった1891年の分類では、否定された。

^In addition to the Takic languages considered by Campbell, Tataviam has been recognized as a separate Takic language (Goddard 1996:7; Mithun 1999:539). Tataviam has sometimes been called by a Chumash name, Alliklik, although other scholars have reserved that name for a Chumash dialect or language (cf. Campbell 1997:135; Mithun 1999:544)
