Title: biografia_04

Description: Bundle continuation of bundles 'biografia_01', 'biografia_02', 'biografia_03'. This bundle contains a video recording of Sixto talking about the time when a group of non-indigenous people first came to the place where the Tiniguas lived. The newcomers came bringing food, gasoline, dresses, and other westerned goods. In exchange they asked the Tinigua people for food (fish and forest goods), and for part of their land for them to settle and build houses.The audios have been transcribed (IPA), translated into English and Spanish, and a glossing and linguistic analysis is in progress.

Description: Tinigua [ISO 639-3:tit] is the last surviving member of an independent South American Tiniguan family whose other member has disappeared without substantial documentation. Today, Sixto Muñoz is the last remaining speaker of the language, who, according to our calculations, is around 90-95 years old. Sixto lives by himself in a house in a remote area of the Serranía de la Macarena (in the Departamento del Meta, in Colombia), at approximately 5-7 hours by boat from the closest town in La Macarena. He has the frequent company of a granddaughter who now lives nearby to the other side of a lake that separates the two houses. The lake is known by people in the surrounding area as Sixto’s Lake.The material found in this deposit consists of a transcribed, translated and annotated audio-visual corpus of the language, a grammatical description, and a lexicon. Additionally, the documentation of Tinigua had focused on gathering further historical and cultural data on the Tiniguan culture, providing audio and visual data both in Spanish and in Tinigua.
