DescriptionThis bundle consists of 13 texts of varying length. They were originally recorded as one long recording that was split up based on the themes Marcelino spoke about: 1) a short talk about the things Marcelino was going to speak about, 2) discussion about the work people used to do and how they would suffer, 3) a discussion about the things that were produced in the community before: gourd bowls, dishes, larges spoons, gourd bottles and clay pots, 4) a discussion about different community work "cargos", i.e. the stewardship festivals, tiquitlatos, and the change of local Authority, 5) function of the Topiles in the Stewardship festivals, 6) how the Tiquitlatos are selected, 7) the experience of Don Marcelino when he was a Tiquitlato, 8) Don Marcelino's experience as a Topil, 9) the work experience Don Marcelino had as a young man in his family, 10) how traditional stick built houses of cane leaf thatched roofs were constructed, 11) a short autobiography of Don Marcelino, 12) how before no one was the owner of land and 14) advice for young people.

Recorded with a Edirol R-09HR field recorder in Don Marcelino's house. A small house built of sticks and cane leaves and palm for the roof. During the recoding it was raining steadily; however, the sound is clear.
