Book to download: Caquetío words in Papiamentu/ Some names of animals and plants in Papiamentu – Gerard van Buurt

In 2014 biologist Gerard van Buurt published this much coveted book on Curaçao. In it two (2) articles which were published previously by FPI (Fundashon Planifikashon di Idioma) and UNA (then University of the Netherlands Antilles) are reissued with many illustrations and with two maps added. The list of references for each article has been combined into one listing. The 2009 article on the Caquetío Indians has been revised somewhat, there are some additions; it is thus not identical to the previous version. The 2012 article also has some new entries and additional information was added to some of the entries.
