Kathleen Fine-Dare
The culture summary was written by Kathleen Fine-Dare in September, 2008. Norman E. Whitten, Jr. was instrumental in advising separating of the original Ecuadorian Highland Quechua collection (SD13) into this (SD15), the Otavalo Quichua (SD16), and the Saraguro Quichua (SD17) collections, and recommended the new documents included. The synopsis and indexing notes were written by Leon G. Doyon in June 2010.
