| The Movima Archive Movima is a genetically unclassified language spoken in the so-called Moxos region in the savannahs of the Bolivian Amazon area. It is still spoken by more than 1,000 people (1,452 in 1996). Most speakers are over 50 years old and bilingual in Spanish. There are only very few children who still learn the language, while children are usually raised in Spanish only. Today, efforts are being made to implement the language at schools. The village Santa Ana del Yacuma, the center of the Movima-speaking area with approximately 12,000 inhabitants, was founded approximately in 1708 by the Jesuits. The Jesuits also converted the the Movima people to Catholicism. There does not seem to be an observable trace of Precolumbian culture (traditions, mythology) left. It is therefore quite striking that the Movimas have kept their native language until today. Since the language is getting lost rapidly, one goal of our data collection is to gather authobiographical information from its last fluent speakers. At the same time, as much as possible other text types were collected, such as dialogues, procedural texts, descriptions etc. The village �fiesta� on July 26th is culturally very important. It includes processions, bull fights, and dancing. Many people from the country visit the village, and the Movima language is spoken a lot. Therefore much of the data has to do with the fiesta. The Movima project contains data collected between 2001 and 2008 in Santa Ana del Yacuma, Bolivia. Between 2001 and 2004, they were collected by Katharina Haude, then Nijmegen University. Since 2006, they were collected by Silke Beuse and Katharina Haude within the DoBeS project at the University of Cologne. Field work was carried out during the dry season between June and October each year. | ||
| Length: 00:12:26:382 Speaker talks about natural remedies and faith in god. She went to a place called Campo AnamarÃa. There was a boy who was severely ill and on the verge of dying. She asked the parents about their faith in god, because of their faith the boy would not die. She then went searching for the remedy and prepared a bath with it for the boy, who later recuperated. Out of gratefullness the boy's parents butcheres a pig for the speaker. She told them to collect some holy water for clearing out the ghosts that still haunt that house and that nearly had taken the boy with them. Faith is very important to her and in fact she doesn't quite know how she cures people, its simply God who does it. The remedies are merely God's tools. So when one's faith is impeded one might not recover. | ||
| Movima is the only language used throughout this session, introductions and instructions given by the collector are also in Movima. | ||
