Carvings of endangered languages by Tim Brookes

In countries all over the world, members of indigenous cultures have their own spoken and written languages — languages they have developed to express their own beliefs, their own experiences, and their understanding of their world. What they have collectively written in those languages is the record of their cultural identity: spiritual texts, historical documents, letters between family members, legal documents, medicinal properties of local plants.
