  • The Status of Rallus Elegans Tenuirostris in Mexico
    Jan., 1959 49 THE STATUS OF RALLUS ELEGANS TENUIROSTRIS IN MEXICO By DWAIN W. WARNER and ROBERT W. DICKERMAN Except for brief mention of occurrence in the states of Mbico and Tlaxcala and the Federal District and of measurements of a small series of specimens collected a half century or more ago, no additional information has been published on Rallus eleganstenuhstris. This subspecieswas described by Ridgway (1874) as Rallus elegans var. tenuirostris from “City of Mexico.” Oberholser ( 193 7) in his revision of the Clap- per Rails (R. Zongirostris) discusseda series of rails taken by E. W. Nelson and E. A. Goldman in July, 1904, near the headwaters of the Rio Lerma, referring to them as Rallus longirostris tenuirostris. Other, more recent major works have referred to the race of large rails inhabiting the fresh water marshes of the plateau of Mbico, two citing elegans and two citing longirostris as the speciesto which this population belongs. In conjunction with other studies in the marshes of central Mkxico, Dickerman col- lected fifteen specimens of this form between July, 1956, and May, 1958. These, plus two recently taken specimens from San Luis Potosi, extend greatly the known range of tenuirostris and add to the knowledge of its biology. All available material of tenuirostris was obtained on loan, as well as sufficient material of R. Zongirostris,including all speci- mens available from the east coast of MCxico, to give us a better picture of the large Rallus complex in MCxico. Sixteen specimens from various populations of both “species” in the United States were also at hand for comparisons.

  • Compte Rendu Amerindia 17
    AMERINDIA n° 21, 1996 Verb morphology of Ixtenco Otomi Yolanda LASTRA UNAM / México Ixtenco is a small town in Tlaxcala where Otomí has been preserved in spite of the pressure from Nahuatl speaker who displaced Otomís from other towns such as Huamantla and in spite of the pressure of Spanish. The disappearance of Ixtenco Otomí will no doubt occur, however, because only older persons speak it and for some time it has not been transmitted to the younger generations. People 40 or younger may only have a passive knowledge of the language. The present paper is based on field work carried out intermittently in one-day trips undertaken in September 1990 and resumed in February 1991. The informants have been two men and three women, but the main informant has been David Alonso, 85 who immensely enjoys teaching his language making it a pleasure to try to understand its structure. Here we will deal with the main features of verbal morphology and compare some of the characteristics of the Ixtenco system with Classical Otomí and with the present-day varieties of Toluca and Hidalgo highlands. In the rest of this paper I will refer to the latter one as Hidalgo Otomí. 2 AMERINDIA n°21, 1996 In contrast to these varieties of Otomí, the Ixtenco dialect has lost the dual; the suffixes that signal the dual in the other varieties are used for plural here. The suffixes for plural in the other varieties are still recognized as a sort of plural of abundance, but they are no longer used. There are 10 tense aspects not counting the imperative.

  • Toward a Comprehensive Model For
    Toward a Comprehensive Model for Nahuatl Language Research and Revitalization JUSTYNA OLKO,a JOHN SULLIVANa, b, c University of Warsaw;a Instituto de Docencia e Investigación Etnológica de Zacatecas;b Universidad Autonóma de Zacatecasc 1 Introduction Nahuatl, a Uto-Aztecan language, enjoyed great political and cultural importance in the pre-Hispanic and colonial world over a long stretch of time and has survived to the present day.1 With an estimated 1.376 million speakers currently inhabiting several regions of Mexico,2 it would not seem to be in danger of extinction, but in fact it is. Formerly the language of the Aztec empire and a lingua franca across Mesoamerica, after the Spanish conquest Nahuatl thrived in the new colonial contexts and was widely used for administrative and religious purposes across New Spain, including areas where other native languages prevailed. Although the colonial language policy and prolonged Hispanicization are often blamed today as the main cause of language shift and the gradual displacement of Nahuatl, legal steps reinforced its importance in Spanish Mesoamerica; these include the decision by the king Philip II in 1570 to make Nahuatl the linguistic medium for religious conversion and for the training of ecclesiastics working with the native people in different regions. Members of the nobility belonging to other ethnic groups, as well as numerous non-elite figures of different backgrounds, including Spaniards, and especially friars and priests, used spoken and written Nahuatl to facilitate communication in different aspects of colonial life and religious instruction (Yannanakis 2012:669-670; Nesvig 2012:739-758; Schwaller 2012:678-687).

  • Water Governance Decentralisation and River Basin Management Reforms in Hierarchical Systems

Cesar Casiano Flores *, Vera Vikolainen † and Hans Bressers † Department of Governance and Technology for Sustainability (CSTM), University of Twente, Enschede 7500AE, The Netherlands; [email protected] (V.V.); [email protected] (H.B.) * Correspondence: c.a.casianofl[email protected]; Tel.: +31-68-174-6250 † These authors contributed equally to this work. Academic Editors: Sharon B. Megdal, Susanna Eden and Eylon Shamir Received: 22 February 2016; Accepted: 11 May 2016; Published: 19 May 2016 Abstract: In the last decades, policy reforms, new instruments development, and economic resources investment have taken place in water sanitation in Mexico; however, the intended goals have not been accomplished. The percentage of treated wastewater as intended in the last two federal water plans has not been achieved. The creation of River Basin Commissions and the decentralisation process have also faced challenges. In the case of Tlaxcala, the River Basin Commission exists only on paper and the municipalities do not have the resources to fulfil the water treatment responsibilities transferred to them. This lack of results poses the question whether the context was sufficiently considered when the reforms were enacted. In this research, we will study the Tlaxcala Atoyac sub-basin, where water treatment policy reforms have taken place recently with a more context sensitive approach. We will apply the Governance Assessment Tool in order to find out whether the last reforms are indeed apt for the context.
