| Sumario: | The oldest manuscript known of the Wichi language (Mataguayan linguistic family) is published for the first time: the Diccionario y arte de la lengua mataca by the Franciscan Esteban Primo, compiled in Zenta mission (now province of Salta, Argentina) and dated in 1795. This manuscript is also contextualized and systematically compared with the three preserved copies of the vocabulary known as the Manuscrito D’Orbigny in order to show that this manuscript, so far anonymous, is the work of Primo himself. |
