Abstract

This article is the preview of a book in process of publication which is the product of an insitu research program developed with Ulwa elders/as of the ancient community of Awawak, today Hamada Karawala. It is an effort to transmit knowledge of our ancestral culture, which has been carried out since the formation of the Ulwa cultural rescue organization CODIUL/UYUTMUBAL in 1988. These investigations have been possible thanks to the voluntary work done by the author of this book, with the support of the North American brothers Dr. Ken Hale (q.e.p.d.) and Dr. Tom Green; Dr. Ken Hale (q.e.p.d.) and Dr. Tom Green; and Dr. Ken Hale (q.e.p.).
