		Cashinahua photos from 1951
		Documentation of Cashinahua: Animacy and mythology in Huni Kuin (Cashinahua): a study of linguistic and cognitive categorization in a Panoan language
Contributor (author):		Harald Schultz
Coverage:		Peru
Date:		1951
Description:		This session contains photos taken by the Brazilian ethnographer and photographer Harald Schultz (1909-1966) who visited the Cashinahua in 1951. The original photos are stored in the MAE-USP (Museu de Arqueologia e Etnologia da Universidade de Sao Paulo). They were digitalized by the Cashinahua Dobes-Project.
		This interdisciplinary project aims at the documentation of Cashinahua language and culture. The Cashinahua language community currently consists of about 6000 members living in several villages with 10 indigenous homelands in the Brazilian state of Acre, and about 1600 members living in 37 villages in Peru. Most members of the speech community are bilingual, either speaking Portuguese or Spanish as a second and in some cases (in Brazil) as a first language. The project is funded for the years of 2006 to 2009 by the VolkswagenStiftung in the Documentation of Endangered Languages Programme. The linguist Eliane Camargo initiated her research among the Brazilian Cashinahua in 1989 and continued to work with the Peruvian Cashinahua in 1994. The anthropologist Philippe Erikson started to work in 1985 with the Matis, another Brazilian Pano group, and in 1993 with the Chacobo, a Pano group living in Bolivia. The linguist Sabine Reiter who previously worked in another Dobes-Project started her research among the Cashinahua in 2006.
		The photographs show aspects of the Cashinahua's life which have disappeared and nowadays are only remembered by the older generation. In addition, Cashinahua people from the Peruvian part of the group in 2008 recognized deceased and still living relatives. This makes the photos a valuable source of information for the Cashinahua people.
		The recording was made with a Sony High-8 video camera.
