The Elem Indian Colony of Sulphur Banks' project will assist in the long-term goal of preserving the Tribe's Southeastern Pomo dialect through the compilation of language data originally spoken by the Elem Indian Colony tribal members. It will develop a language curriculum for classes and produce a hardbound handbook dictionary which will be presented to each Elem Colony roll member. The dictionary is for use as a working tool in learning the Elem language. Through the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) Consortium and other methods, the book will be distributed to other tribes that share the language but no longer have any living speakers. The project will provide establishment of a Language Library in the Elem Colony office as a repository for all language resources developed and used in this project. This project is scheduled to be completed within 36 months from the date of award.
