The Tonsawang (a.k.a Tombatu or Toundanow) language is traditionally spoken in the town of Tombatu and a number of other smaller villages in the Southeast Minahasa province of North Sulawesi, Indonesia. This audio and video data corpus was collected during 2016 – 2018 as part of a post-doctoral research fellowship (IPF0246) funded by the Endangered Languages Documentation Programme with Timothy Brickell as the Principal Investigator. This collection seeks to document aspects of Tonsawang language and culture by recording various culturally significant discourse genres, such as: narratives, songs, proverbs, and stories, as well as personal monologues and dialogues from speakers. The video recordings in the collection demonstrate a number of traditional activities such as: palm sugar collection and palm wine making, traditional wood crafting (e.g. making of ’kolintang’, a large wooden xylophone type instrument), preparation of traditional foods, and collection of indigenous flora and fauna.
