The photos and videos uploaded in this session were made by Natalia Aralova in July 2018 at the special event organized in the club for a camera crew who were making a documentary about the Polina Osipenko district. We uploaded two videos with dances performed by the dancing group Sivun (kola_beldy_dance & reindeer_dance) and one video with a dance performed by the junior dancing group Julten (kumalan_dance). The “Kola Beldy” dance and the “kumalan” dance were later also performed for the Day of the Village festival (see Bundle “The day of the village”). Note that these dances are probably not originally Negidal (for exampe, the melody of the “reindeer dance” is known among Evens on Kamchatka), but are an attempt to involve children and adolescents in indigenous cultural activities. In addition, we archived several pictures with descriptions. // Фотографии и видео в этой сессии сделаны Наталией Араловой в июле 2018 года во время встречи в клубе, организованной для съемочной группы, снимавшей документальный фильм о районе им. Полины Осипенко. Мы загрузили два видео с танцами танцевальной группы «Сивун» (kola_beldy_dance и reindeer_dance) и одно видео детской танцевальной группы «Юлтен» (kumalan_dance). Кроме того, мы загрузили фотографии с этой встречи с описанием. This project focuses on the documentation of Negidal, a highly moribund Northern Tungusic language spoken by at most a handful of individuals on the Amgun’ and Lower Amur rivers in the Russian Federation. The language comprises two dialects, Upper and Lower Negidal, of which the latter might already be extinct. The project will result primarily in an extensive corpus of interlinearized texts from the Upper dialect together with accompanying audio recordings. Linguist working on previously collected data.
