Description:This session with KyM was extracted from a film sequence shot over a decade ago. Originally meant for a tv documentary, the session was shot in CK Viejo's god house. Thus this session was not recorded with the archiving in mind. Parts of the sessions are incomplete due to the natuere of filmming for television or film.
Lacandón Cultural Heritage is a documentation of the language and culture of the northern Lacandón(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 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 Lacandón 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.
