Description
This potlatch was recorded in Tetlin, Alaska by Jimmy Joe. Copies of the recording were later given to Frederica de Laguna. A detailed list of the songs performed has not been located among the collector's documentation. Given the location of the recording, a significant portion of the songs are likely in the Upper Tanana language. Performance may include songs in languages of other nearby communities, though specific linguistic information is not available in the collector's documentation.
