Description: | An knowledgeable elder, Watong, does the recitation of Yupung (ancestral invocation) for the collector. | |
The aim of the project is to provide a rich linguistic and ethnographic documentation of two highly endangered but almost totally undocumented languages in eastern Nepal, Chintang and Puma. These languages belong to the Kiranti family of Tibeto-Burman. Chintang is spoken by the Chintang Rai in Chintang Village Development Committee (VDC) of Dhankuta district. Puma is spoken by the Puma Rai in Diplung, Mauwabote and Pauwasera VDCs, to the south of Khotang bazar in Khotang district. Both these districts are situated in the eastern hilly part of the country. | ||
The village elder first gives some details about his person and then is asked about rituals in Chintang, in particular Yupung, which is an ancestral offering celebrated in the early summer (after the full moon of Baisakh/ April-May). | ||
Ichchha Purna is the RA for the study of ethnography of Chintang | ||
The consultant is one of the elders in the hamlet of Sambugau | ||
