| Description: | The recording shows the different stages of building a new house in the Awetí village. The owner of the house is 030. The session consists of 9 parts recorded between the 27th of May and the 8th of June. The recording is of cultural value to the Awetí Project. | |
| This project aims at the documentation of the Awetí Language and aspects of the Awetí culture. Awetí is a tupian language of a small speech community of the same name at the southern edge of the Amazon rain forest, in the Xingú reserve, Mato Grosso, central Brazil. The project was funded December 2000--April 2006 by the VolkswagenStiftung in the Documentation of Endangered Languages Programme (DOBES). The principal researcher, Sebastian Drude, initianted his research among the Aweti in 1998. Sabine Reiter participated as a freelancer in 2001 and as research assistant (including conducting field research) from 2002 on. The Awetí participated intensively in the project. At least one person of each houshold provided individual texts, the community agreed to be documented in day-to-day activities and during special events such as rituals. Several Awetí got involved in the further processing of the documentation data, especially by assisting in the creation of transcriptions and translations during the 9 field trips and in 8 visits of two to three speakers in Belém or Canarana. | ||
| Different stages of building a traditional house in the Upper Xingu are recorded. Tree trunks are cut in the forest and carried to the village. The trunks are set upright in front of the old house.

| Awetí is used in everyday communication within the Awetí community. Brazilian Portuguese is primarily used by some (predominantly male) members of the Awetí community to communicate with the researchers and other people from outside the Xingu area. It is also increasingly used among different ethnic groups within the Upper Xingu. | ||
| In cultural documents several Awetí from the village may appear without single identification. | ||
