Sydney M. Lamb Papers

The Sydney M. Lamb papers on California Indian languages are a collection of mid-century linguistic fieldwork held at the California Language Archive. Among them is documentation of Eastern Mono (Owens Valley Paiute) gathered by the linguist Sydney M. Lamb working with speaker Lucy Kinsman.

Materials like these, recorded directly with fluent speakers, are a primary record of how the language is spoken and structured. They sit alongside the published grammars and ethnographies as source material.
