AN-LANG: collecting authentic dugong stories in different parts of Oceania.

[Tatsuya Yanagida]

Dear Subscribers,

Associate Prof.Masayuki Onishi, who works on Motuna, a Pauan language in
Bougainville Island, is collecting authentic dugong stories in different
parts of Oceania. If you are generous to give him your information on
literatures about such stories in your languages, hopefully with original
texts (and recorded materials, if available.), he would really appreciate
it.

Currently, he has a few stories of dugong hunting from Australian languages
collected and published by Heath.

Please send your messages as follows:

To: Masa.Onishi at ics.meio-u.ac.jp
Subject: dugong stories
cc: tatsuyayanagida at hotmail.com

We would really appreciate your information.

Yours sincerely,
Tatsuya
