| Description | This collection contains materials related to the Project for the Documentation of the Languages of MesoAmerica (PDLMA) which was a large-scale effort to document many of the languages of southern Mexico. From 1993 until 2010, the PDLMA (which went by different names in its earliest and latest iterations) functioned by bringing together speakers of indigenous Mesoamerican languages with academic linguists for summer field sessions in various locations, including Fortín de las Flores, Veracruz; Catemaco, Veracruz; Oaxaca City, Oaxaca; and San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas. Researchers' activities were guided and supervised by Kaufman and other PDLMA personnel, and occasionally, materials were recorded in the speakers' home communities. The researcher(s) and the year(s) that each language was studied are given below:
The contents of this collection include the following numbers of folders and media files for each of the languages listed below. Note that folders and files can be labeled with more than one language. Mayan languages:
