these and other recordings are data for a reference grammar of Kelenga that, when completed, will be archived in the collection "Bozo languages of Mali (documents)" in Deep Blue Documents. For contents see the "notes" file inside the work. A few of the Kelenga texts are being transcribed, others will be left for others to transcribe or listen to as they wish.
For content see the "notes" file inside the work. Most of the recordings are translated and annotated at the end of the reference grammar (see link to Deep Blue Documents).
we conducted an emergent qualitative systematic content analysis of scholarship published in Cultural Trends, the International Journal of Cultural Policy, and the Journal of Arts Management, Law, and Society since the peer-reviewed journals’ inceptions.
Jalkunan is an endangered language of the Mande family, spoken in the village cluster of Blédougou in southwestern Burkina Faso. The lexical work complements a published grammar with texts. See the readme for further information.
The work on the Bangime language, spoken by the Bangande people, was carried out as part of a larger linguistic fieldwork project focused on Dogon languages. Bangime is confirmed as a language isolate with no demonstrable linguistic relatives—possibly the only such isolate in West Africa.
Our project, mainly on Dogon languages of Mali, has branched out to Burkina Faso with emphasis on documentation of the most endangered languages. Tiefo-N was studied on an emergency basis since it was down to two aging competent speakers. For additional comments and links to a reference grammar, see the readme file.
The following works contain the databases, field notebooks, unit and profile drawings, photographs, photo descriptions, radiocarbon dates, and geophysical survey data related to the Kodër Boks settlement excavation.
Photos are of each level in each unit, and of features. Photos are labeled with the site number, date taken, and a ID number (e.g., S015-05262014-001 = the first photo taken on May 25, 2014 during the excavation of Zagorë). The photolog lists each photo taken of a site during excavation in order by photo number (site number, date taken, ID number), with a description.
The database for each site includes level and feature forms for each excavated unit. These forms describe each level or feature in detail, including soil color and texture, soil inclusions, artifact density, disturbances, pertinent measurements, etc.
PDFs of scans of miscellaneous documents related to a particular excavation, including, e.g., excavation forms, maps of units, and drawings of units and unit profiles.
The following works contain the databases, field notebooks, unit and profile drawings, photographs, photo descriptions, radiocarbon dates, and geophysical survey data related to the Gajtan settlement excavation.

PDFs of Accelerator Mass Spectroscopy (AMS) radiocarbon reports, including calibration curves. Reports include sample type (e.g., charcoal, bone, sediment), date, date calibrated, standard deviation, etc.
