| Description: | Gathering of the men at night, chanting. The recording shows the first night of the Jawari celebration which altogether lasts for two weeks. | |
| This project aims at the documentation of the Awetí Language and aspects of the Awetí culture. Awetí is a tupian language of a small speech community of the same name at the southern edge of the Amazon rain forest, in the Xingú reserve, Mato Grosso, central Brazil. The project was funded December 2000--April 2006 by the VolkswagenStiftung in the Documentation of Endangered Languages Programme (DOBES). The principal researcher, Sebastian Drude, initianted his research among the Aweti in 1998. Sabine Reiter participated as a freelancer in 2001 and as research assistant (including conducting field research) from 2002 on. The Awetí participated intensively in the project. At least one person of each houshold provided individual texts, the community agreed to be documented in day-to-day activities and during special events such as rituals. Several Awetí got involved in the further processing of the documentation data, especially by assisting in the creation of transcriptions and translations during the 9 field trips and in 8 visits of two to three speakers in Belém or Canarana. | ||
| Awetí among the Awetí. Partially Awetí, partially Portuguese with the researcher. | ||
| The Jawari convocation takes place in the centre of the Awetí village at night. It represents the beginning of the Jawari celebration. SD has the role of a non-participating observer. | ||
| The main researcher of the Aweti Project. See description of Collector. | ||
| House-building is a task carried out by men. The owner of the new house pays the house-builders with food which is distributed in the village centre after the work has been done. | ||
| At night, night shots (black-and-green). Men gaterhing in the center, making a fire, later rehearsing the jawari chanting at night. | ||
| Since the recording took place at night with a special technique (nightshot ###) it partially became too dark. | ||
