Description:KP makes a traditional Lacandon necklace.
Lacandon Cultural Heritage is a documentation of the language and culture of the northern Lacandon(Maya), who live in the rain forest in Chiapas, the south-eastern state of Mexico. They number approximately 350 men, women and children, who have retained much of their traditional culture and religion. The project serves as a preservative measure against loss of the traditional knowledge, stories, and verbal performances that are central to Lacandon culture. It also serves as an interactive resource tool for linguists and non-linguists to access data relevant to their areas of interest, such as folklore, ethnobotany, cultural anthropology, etc.
KP makes a traditional Lacandon necklace. She drills the seeds, using a hand-drill. There is no dialogue.
Any language that is spoken in this session is Lacandon.
KP and CKD may talk a bit. The collector is the only other person present, and can neither be seen nor heard on camera.
CKD is the uncle of Lej , in that he is the youngest son of KPG and the youngest brother of KyP (who is Lej's father). CKD lives with his mothers, brothers and sisters and his buddy Lej.
Om is the first child of CHX and KA. He is the grandson of KP, and nephew of CNK, SK, KGP, KyG, CKD. He is the grandson of CK. He has a little sister, who has not been named yet.
KP was born and raised in Naha. She was brought into CK Viejo's household when she was five years old. She was raised by her co-wife KM. She and CK Viejo had ten children, some of whom still live on the family property. She has not ventured far from Naha.
The collector of this session data is also responsbile for the collection of all of the data sessions and the whole project.
