Description:This session contains a story told by Joaquin Jimenez. The recording took place in his house at night. It is about 8:30 p.m. During the whole recording session which takes about an hour and a half there are the two narrators Mario Bardales and Joaquin Jimenez and the collectors Sabine Reiter and Eliane Camargo present at the location. Mario tells the first three stories, Joaquin the last three, this is the last of them. One story told by Mario and all three stories by Joaquin are in the story collection by Capistrano de Abreu. There is hardly any background noise during the recording.
This interdisciplinary project aims at the documentation of Cashinahua language and culture. The Cashinahua language community currently consists of about 6000 members living in several villages with 10 indigenous homelands in the Brazilian state of Acre, and about 1600 members living in 37 villages in Peru. Most members of the speech community are bilingual, either speaking Portuguese or Spanish as a second and in some cases (in Brazil) as a first language. The project is funded for the years of 2006 to 2009 by the VolkswagenStiftung in the Documentation of Endangered Languages Programme. The linguist Eliane Camargo initiated her research among the Brazilian Cashinahua in 1989 and continued to work with the Peruvian Cashinahua in 1994. The anthropologist Philippe Erikson started to work in 1985 with the Matis, another Brazilian Pano group, and in 1993 with the Chacobo, a Pano group living in Bolivia. The linguist Sabine Reiter who previously worked in another Dobes-Project started her research among the Cashinahua in 2006.
The story is told in Cashinahua.
The recording takes place in a private atmosphere with the author, his brother-in-law and the two researchers. The author feels at ease when telling the story. Eliane speaks to the authors primarily in Cashinahua. The transcription was done by Cesar.

Joaquin is one of several older men who were the main informants during the two weeks Sabine Reiter and Eliane Camargo spent in San Martin in June 2006. During this time Joaquin was living only with one of his grandsons in his house, the rest of his family being in Puerto Esperanza due to the illness of his wife. Joaquin is the brother of Mario's wife Laura. He has two more sisters and a brother. Joaquin is one of the best story-tellers in San Martin. He has learned the stories from his father.
The audio recording was done with a Sony Portable Minidisk Recorder MZ-RH10 and an external electret condenser stereo microphone SONY ECM-MS957.
The minidisk is divided into tracks of up to 5 min each. The session starts at track 18 and ends at track 25 of group 1 on the minidisk. The whole session has a duration of 40 min.
The sessions CASRAM09Jun0601-S23 to CASRAM09Jun0601-S30 on CADMF 10 need to be joined to form a new session called Joaquin_Inanwan.
