content: This series contains field notes and other research materials that Laughlin created or collected throughout his career. Most materials are related to Laughlin's study of Tzotzil language, history, and cultural practices. Laughlin made photocopies of his Tzotzil field notebooks which are located at the beginning of the series. Other items of note aside from Laughlin's Tzotzil notes include ornithology notebooks that he created before he decided to pursue a degree in anthropology.
