| Description: | AM describes känki7, at the request of the collector. | |
| 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. | ||
| AM describes the ceremony känki7, at the request of the collector. Känki7 was an especially important ceremony, involving the replacement of the old god pots with new ones. From what the collector gathers, känki7 is name of both the offering and the ceremony. | ||
| Lacandon is spoken in this session. | ||
| AM is the main contributor in this session. The collectors and SK may be heard off camera asking questions. No one else is resent during the recording. | ||
| AM is an elder in the community of Naha. He is respected for his knowledge of traditional Lacandón culture, and his knowledge of the traditional stories and ceremonial formulae. He is one of the few Lacandones who still practice the ancient Maya rituals. AM provides the bulk of the traditional rituals and stories for this corpus. | ||
| SK is one of CK and KP's younger children. He was born in Naha and has lived there all his life. He still lives at home, with his new wife NI. He provides the bulk of the Lacandon-Spanish translations, and is present during many sessions recorded with AM. | ||
