Golyad or East Galindian (Russian: Голя́дский язык) is a poorly attested extinct Baltic language of the Balts living in the Protva basin in present-day Russia.[2] The Golyad people are believed to have descended from the Moshchiny culture and are only known ethnonyn for the Dnieper-Oka language [ru]. Due to there being no written documents of the Golyad language, the language is poorly known.[3] The language went extinct in the 12th century due to Slavic conquest and assimilation.[1]
