Description: Tinigua is the last surviving member of an independent South American Tiniguan family whose other member has disappeared without substantial documentation. Today, Sixto MuÃ±oz 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 SerranÃa 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 Sixtoâ€™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.
