Abstract

The objective of the project for which I received generous support from FAMSI is the documentation of colonial and post-colonial K'ichee' dictionaries and grammars from the holdings of the Princeton University Library and the Tozzer Library at Harvard University. This research is the first step in the prospective plan to compile and edit a comprehensive colonial K'ichee' dictionary.

Esta investigación es el primer paso dentro de un plan a futuro para compilar y editar un diccionario k'ichee' colonial comprehensivo.
