  • Tone, Stress, and Their Interactions in Cushillococha Ticuna Abstract
    Tone, stress, and their interactions in Cushillococha Ticuna Abstract: Ticuna (ISO: tca; Peru, Colombia, Brazil) displays a larger tone inventory -- five level tones -- and greater tone density than any other Indigenous American language outside Oto- Manguean. Based on recent fieldwork, this article argues that, in addition to these tone properties, the Cushillococha variety of Ticuna also displays stress. Stress licenses additional tonal and segmental contrasts; conditions many phonological processes; and plays a central role in grammatical tone processes marking clause type. Empirically, these findings expand our understanding of word prosody in Amazonian languages. Theoretically, they challenge current models of stress-conditioned phonology and of grammatical tone. Keywords: Tone; Stress; Stress-Conditioned Phonology; Amazonian Languages Word Count (includes tables and examples; excludes abstract and references): 14,432 1. Introduction The purpose of this paper is to describe and analyze the word-prosodic system of Ticuna – a language isolate spoken in the northwestern Amazon Basin – through data gathered in recent fieldwork in Cushillococha, Peru. The study makes two primary contributions. First, I provide evidence that the Cushillococha variety of Ticuna displays five underlying level tones, with eight surface tones (including contours) on monosyllables. My analysis of the tone inventory supports previous analyses by L. Anderson (1959) and D. Anderson (1962), and opposes Montes Rodriguez’ (1995, 2004) argument for only three level tones. This finding is typologically consequential because it establishes Ticuna as the only American language, outside the Oto-Manguean family, to display more than three underlying tones (Hyman 2010). Second, I argue that in addition to tone, the Cushillococha variety of Ticuna also displays fixed stem-initial stress.

  • Ticuna (Tca) Language Documentation: a Guide to Materials in the California Language Archive
    Vol. 15 (2021), pp. 153–189 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24972 Revised Version Received: 1 Dec 2020 Ticuna (tca) language documentation: A guide to materials in the California Language Archive Amalia Skilton University of Texas at Austin Ticuna (ISO: tca) is a language isolate spoken in the northwestern Amazon Basin (Brazil, Colombia, Peru). Ticuna has more speakers than almost all other In- digenous Amazonian languages and – unlike most languages of the area – is still learned by children. Yet academic linguists have given it relatively little research attention. Therefore, to raise the profile of this areally important language, Ioffer a guide to three collections of Ticuna language materials held in the California Language Archive. These materials are extensive, including over 1,396 hours of recordings – primarily of child language and everyday conversations between adults – and 33 hours of transcriptions. To contextualize the materials, I pro- vide background on the Ticuna language and people; the research projects which produced the materials; the participants who appear in them; and the ethical and permissions issues involved in collecting them. I then discuss the nature and scope of the materials, showing how the content of each collection motivated collection- specific choices about recording, transcription, organization in the archive, and metadata. Last, I outline how other researchers could draw on the collections for comparative analysis. 1. Introduction1 Language documentation researchers invest enormous amounts of time in creating archival deposits, but we rarely provide descriptions of our collec- tions (Sullivant 2020). Moreover, even when we do describe archival collections in detail, our descriptions are usually not designed to encourage others to use the col- lections for comparative work.

Por ello, también sería imposible manifestar por escrito un agradecimiento personal a todas ellas. Sin embargo, aunque no aparezcan citadas, sus contribuciones aparecen concretadas en cada línea de este trabajo. Y son personas a quien manifiesto mi más sincero agradecimiento y a quienes siempre recordaré. En primer lugar, quiero manifestar mis más sinceros agradecimientos a mi directora de tesis, Dra. Fátima Cruz Souza, por su apoyo humano en los momentos difíciles y su orientación científica; sin ella, seguramente, no habría llegado hasta aquí, porque hacer un doctorado fuera del país de origen y escribir en otro idioma exige una superación constante de dificultades.

Skilton Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics University of California, Berkeley Associate Professor Lev Michael, Chair This dissertation is a study of the 6-term demonstrative system of Ticuna, a language isolate spoken by 60,000 people in Peru, Colombia, and Brazil. Much research on demonstratives has claimed that they encode only the distance of the demonstrative referent from the discourse participants. By contrast, I argue that no demon- strative of Ticuna conveys any information about distance. Instead, I show, the demonstratives of Ticuna provide listeners with two kinds of information: • Perceptual information: Demonstratives encode whether the speaker sees the demonstra- tive referent. • Spatial information: Demonstratives encode where the referent is located relative to the peripersonal space (reaching space) of the discourse participants. Location relative to periper- sonal space is crucially dierent from distance.

  • Genomic and Climatic Effects on Human Crania from South America: a Comparative
    Genomic and Climatic Effects on Human Crania from South America: A Comparative Microevolutionary Approach Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Brianne C. Herrera, M.A. Graduate Program in Anthropology The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Committee Mark Hubbe, Advisor Clark Spencer Larsen Debbie Guatelli-Steinberg Jeffrey McKee Copyrighted by Brianne C. Herrera 2019 Abstract Cranial morphology has been widely used to estimate phylogenetic relationships among and between populations. When compared against genetic data, however, discrepancies arise in terms of population affinity and effects of microevolutionary processes. These discrepancies are particularly apparent in studies of the human dispersion to the New World. Despite the apparent discrepancies, research has thus far been limited in scope when analyzing the relationship between the cranial morphology and genetic markers. This dissertation aimed to fill this void in research by providing a necessary broad comparative approach, incorporating 3D morphological and climate data, mtDNA, and Y-chromosome DNA from South America. The combination of these data types allows for a more complete comparative analysis of microevolutionary processes. Correlations between these different data types allow for the assessment their relatedness, while quantitatively testing microevolutionary models permit determining the congruence of these different data types. I asked the following research questions: 1) how consistent are the patterns of population affinity when comparing different regions of the crania to each type of DNA for populations in South America? 2) If they are not consistent, why not? How are different evolutionary forces affecting the affinities between them? Collectively, both the cranial and genetic data demonstrated patterns of isolation-by-distance when viewed from a continent-wide scale.

University of Cape Town Abstract This study aims to contribute to the ongoing debate about the spread of English in Brazil. Brazilian Portuguese is the official and by far most spoken language in Brazil. In spite of being a multilingual country, several policies guided the country towards monolingualism. A bill has been recently proposed by the then congressman Aldo Rebelo, in 1999, and approved in 2007 that regards English as a threat to the Brazilian Po1tuguese language.
