There are 3 towns in which Tektiteko is spoken: Mazapa de Madero, Amatenango de la Frontera (this person was interviewed in Motozintla), and Tectitán (in Guatemala). Terrence Kaufman collected the data in 1967 and 1968; Ray Freeze participated to some extent. They interviewed a lady from Tectitán who lived in Motozintla. In 1969 Kaufman arranged for Una Canger to go to Chiapas and work with a man from Mazapa (the same man that Kaufman had previously worked with), and Canger collected a lot of lexical material and texts and gave copies of it all to Kaufman. Kaufman made file slips from it all. The white slips are photocopies of Canger’s file slip; the orange slips were made by Kaufman from his own field notes. Most of the data collected was from Mazapa (Kaufman and Freeze got very little data from the speakers who were from Amatenango and Tectitán). All of the data that Canger collected were from Mazapa. These file slips are from everything that was collected by either Kaufman or Canger.
