Description:Some impressions from children in the village, taken in the early 2005 field trip. Two sons of 146 (153+201?) with bycicle.
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.
SD films male children in the center of the village. Two very young children of 146 are on a bycicle which, by other standards probably would be considered much too large for them. Other children are standing, chatting and posing for the camera.
Awetí among the Awetí themselves. With the researchers, a mixture of Awetí and Protuguese, from both sides.
Several children, probably 153 and 201 on the bike and 156 assisting them (children of chief 146 and 148). Around 1:40, from left to right: 203 (son of the teacher 018 and 022), 126 (son of 118 and 121), 156 (son of chief 146 and 148), 024 (son of the teacher 018 and 022), 216 (son of shaman and story teller 083 and 064)
