We are pleased to announce that Living Tongues Institute is part of a research team that received a grant from The Endangered Language Fund’s “Native Voices Endowment” to support the creation of the first-ever Tutelo-Saponi Monacan Living Dictionary. Led by indigenous historian and language activist Dr. Marvin Richardson, the goal of the project is to provide enrolled members of the Monacan Indian Nation, as well as other indigenous people of Tutelo, Saponi and Monacan descent, with a comprehensive mobile-friendly digital language resource.
Collaborators include principal investigator Dr. Marvin Richardson (Haliwa-Saponi Indian Tribe), Anna Luisa Daigneault (Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages), Corey Justin Roberts (PhD Candidate in Linguistics at the University of Arizona), Dr. David Kaufman (linguistic anthropologist), Dr. Gregory D. S. Anderson (Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages) and Matthew Richardson (Haliwa-Saponi Indian Tribe).
