Description | Within this panorama, I will talk about the Zapotec of San Baltasar Chichicapan in the district of Oco'tlan, southeast the city of Oaxaca, Mexico. This variant of Zapotec is confined, apparently, to a single town, although it would be convenient to raise data in the surrounding region to confirm this. My own language study began in 1995, when I spent two months working in Catemaco, Veracruz, as part of the Project for the Documentation of Mije-Zoquean and Zapotecan Languages, under the direction of Terrence Kaufman and John Juesteson, with the main objective of collecting material for a language dictionary. Lucino San Juan San German, native of Chichicapan and native speaker of his language, was my informant. I continued this work during the summers of 1999 (2 months), 2000 (2 months) and 2001 (1 month), when the project was known as the Project for the Documentation of Languages of Mesoamerica (PDLMA) and, as of 2000 , with the addition of Roberto Zavala as co-director. In these times, I worked with Gregorio Vasquez Rebollar as an informant. |
