Mixtepec Zapotec photo archive

This project is to create a digital library of still images from San
Juan Mixtepec, Oaxaca, Mexico, with a particular focus on these people's
knowledge and use of the local flora and fauna. The images will be used to
create a CDRom ethnobiological catalog. The initial research was funded by
a grant from the NSF with the active collaboration of SERBO, A.C., a
Mexican ecological research organization.  The project also has involved
graduate and undergraduate assistants: Jennifer Aradanas, Thomas Murphy,
Oscar Barrera, Brian Van Hoy, Julia Bennett, and Lisa Schneider.
