Description:Uma mulher Trumai define o que é "yaw weleku", parte da pessoa que pode voltar depois da morte para ameaçar os vivos.
The purpose of the project is to document Trumai, a genetically isolate language spoken in Brazil. The archive consists of a collection of texts in the language, plus other kinds of materials relative to the Trumai culture, such as photos, drawings, songs, educational materials, etc.
An old woman talks about facts of her childhood and other historical facts related to the Trumai people. She is interviewed by her granddaughter.
The speakers talk in Trumai.
Emmanuel de Vienne is a french student finishing his PhD in Paris, at the Ecoles des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales. He works with the Trumai since 2003.
Speaker12 is a native speaker of Trumai. Both her parents were Trumai. She and her brother are the last descendents of the Awaldat group, a Trumai subdivision that used to speak a different dialect of the language. However, this dialect seems to have disappeared (Speaker12's way of speaking is similar to the way of speaking of the other Trumai individuals). Her late husband was Kayabi. She lives with her son and daughter-in-law and has several grandchildren. She is middle-aged (50 or more).
