Description: Materials by both Harry Hoijer and Father Berard Haile, O.F.M., relating to the academic study of Jicarilla Apache. These include several Jicarilla texts--including many Coyote stories--in phonemic transcription, with interlinear English glosses and many explanatory notes of ethnographic interest; Haile's rewriting of Pliny Earle Goddard's "Jicarilla Texts"; and what seems to be a typed draft of a monograph. Cevero Caramillo and Alasco Tiznada are mentioned as Apache collaborators, particularly with the Coyote stories. Titles of texts/stories are listed in the guide to the Harry Hoijer Collection.
