Abstract:

In this text collection, nine Teop authors and one Teop graphic artist
document the use of palms, trees, bamboo and other plants in their
material culture.
The book consists of six main parts. Following the introductory
chapters on the Teop language and the historical context of the text
collection in Part I, Parts II to V contain 32 Teop texts with
illustrations and English translations on the topics of plants,
house-building, canoe-building and traditional fishing techniques.
Part VI provides all the Teop texts and their translations, with an
additional linguistic analysis and glossing of each word in
interlinearized format.
The chapters in Part I and the brief introductions to the texts in
Parts II to V are by the editor, who also produced the English
translations in collaboration with the Teop authors, as well as the
linguistic analysis and glossing in Part VI.
