Description: | KM narrates the story about Chak Xok, at the request of the collectors. For another version this story by a different speaker, see Chak_Xok_BM. | |
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. | ||
KM narrates the story about Chak Xok, the mythical sirens in Lacandon lore. SK is present, and prompts her. Another version of this story by a different speaker can be found in Chak_Xok_BM | ||

KMis the main contributor in this session. SK is present and may be heard asking questions or providing back channeling.The only other person present is the collector, who can neither be seen nor heard on camera. | ||
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. | ||
The collector of this session data is also responsbile for the collection of all of the data sessions and the whole project. | ||
KM is CK Viejo's third and eldest living wife. She is the head of the household, by virtue of her seniority. She has borne ten children, all of whom are now adults and have long since moved out of the family household. She is adored by KP's grandchild, Lej. She has never left the village, except for the occasional trips to other surrounding villages, and the larger towns of Ocosingo and San Cristobal. | ||
