Summary

C. Hermann Berendt's copy of Sebastian Valdez's 1868 Spanish-Pokomam vocabulary of approximately 80 words grouped by subject, concluding with numerals. The Pokomam is from the town of Mita in the Guatemalan department of Jutiapa. Berendt added in red ink a third column of the equivalents from the Pokonchi of San Cristobal Cajcaj for comparison and a note about the dialects (p. [2]). A fold-out note on different paper is tipped in at the end with references to another source.
