Note 481 — SOUTH AMERICAN TRIBES. (continued 2)

Reading edition

Descripcion de las Misiones del Alto Peru, 12mo, Lima, 1771. The only copy of this work which I have seen, and that an imperfect one, is in the Collection Angrand, in the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris. Among the MSS. of this great library is a Confessionario in Itonama, which should be published as perhaps the only text of the language extant. Some remarks on its phonetics may be found in D’Orbigny, L’Homme Américain, Tome II., p. 239.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
