Timucua language materials

Here is a list of  the primary materials on Timucua, with links to electronic versions where available.

Various sources on Timucua have attempted to get the most correct list of the various materials and their dates, but there are some discrepancies in the items listed by Granberry (1993) and Milanich and Sturtevant (1972).  Having looked at microfilm or other versions of all of these, this is my best current understanding of what the materials are and where the originals are located.


1.      Movilla, Gregorio de.      | 1635a. Explicacion de la Doctrina que compuso el cardenal Belarmino, por mandado del Señor Papa Clemente 8. Traducida en Lengua Floridana: por el Padre Fr. Gregorio de Movilla. Mexico: Imprenta de Iuan Ruyz.

2.      Movilla, Gregorio de|  1635b. Forma breve de administrar los sacramentos a los indios y españoles que viven entre ellos. Mexico: Imprenta de Iuan Ruyz.

5.      Pareja, Francisco.  |  1613. Confessionario en lengua castellana y timuquana con unos consejos para animar al penitente. Mexico City: Emprenta de la viuda de Diego Lopez Daualos.

   (One copy is at the NY Historical Society.  Another copy is at the John Carter Brown library.  The link below is to the JCB version.  Unfortunately, the scan of the JCB item is less than perfect, since the parts of the page nearest the binding cannot be read very well.  This issue is noticeable for many pages from about f20 on.  I presume the condition/fragility of the book did not allow a better digitalization. )
