Textos aborígenes en lengua kiliwa
These three Kiliwa myths, the "War of Revenge", "Mountain Sheep Constellation", and "The Death of Metipa" are of considerable ethnographic and linguistic interest, given the diminishing number of Kiliwa speakers. Although also available in his English translation, as noted in the bibliography, Dr. Mixco publishes them here so that Spanish speakers of the Kiliwa community will have easier access to them.

Textos para la etnohistoria en la frontera dominicana de Baja California
After the expulsion of the Jesuits in 1767 the Spanish government established a number of missions on what was known as the "Dominican Frontier" of the Peninsula of Lower California, among the Yuman peoples in the area of the Colorado River.

Versión de la "Guerra de la venganza", Texto mitológico de la Baja California indígena
This mythological text, "The War of Revenge", was told in Paipai, a Yuman language of northern Baja California. Mixco (1984) has published an English-Paipai version also. The same story in Kiliwa was published in 1939 by Meigs. It relates a battle between humans, led by a wise man and a god, in which the latter wins and throws the wise man's head into the heavens where it becomes a comet.
The Proto-Numic Kinship System
On the basis of historical linguistic and ethnohistorical evidence, the Proto-Numic kinship system can be reconstructed as Kariera (Dravidianate) in type based on a rule of bilateral cross-cousin marriage. The reconstruction is consistent with semantic shifts in Numic kinship terminologies and with universal theories of kinship evolution which take Dravidianate systems as a starting point and assume irreversible drifts away from this point. The d…
