| Description: | In this session, Ago Jebisow from the village of Buragaon, West Kameng district of Arunachal Pradesh is narrating a story about two brothers Sülülü Adõ and Sülülü Atchü. The story recounts the younger brother Sülülü Atchü's desperate attempts to prevent his elder brother from succumbing to his ailment. However, Sülülü Atchü's extreme step of capturing his elder brother's wandering soul from the jungle later creates problem for the entire family. The story then focuses on the various methods that were performed by the family to get rid of elder brother's visiting soul. The aim of the video is to capture and preserve the rich oral traditional art of story telling of the Hrusso Aka tribe. This art serves as an important means of passing down of knowledge from one generation to another, which is unfortunately a dying practice. The aim is to collect as many folklore as possible. FUN FACT: Till date, the indigenous priest (Müga) uses this section of the song as a a prayer chant to chase away unwanted and wandering souls.

| Documentation and Description of the Hrusso Aka Language of Arunachal Pradesh DESCRIPTION: This is a collection of Audio, video and textual language resources in Hrusso Aka, a language spoken by about 4000 speakers in the West Kameng district of Arunachal Pradesh, India. Hrusso Aka is an interesting language because of its dissimilarities with other languages in the region. It is highly endangered due to the ongoing rapid language shift to Hindi. This collection contains various genre of natural and elicited language forms such as stories, mythology, conversations, songs, dances, word lists etc, and has been made possible by an IGS scholarship by ELDP and a long-standing collaboration between the researcher and members of the Hrusso Aka community. | ||
