Rinikohen Tiningo’ Put CHamoru

CHamoru Archives

A major strategic priority of the Kumisión is to build a comprehensive, sustainable repository of materials about CHamoru language, history and culture for community access and for future scholars and descendants of the Taotao Tåno’ of Låguas and Gåni. We have begun to create the archival infrastructure for such an undertaking. We are advocating for official designation as Guam’s CHamoru depository of all materials in the CHamoru language as well as material written by CHamoru people about CHamoru language, culture and history or by non-CHamoru writers and multi-media producers regarding all aspects of the CHamoru experience.

Documentation, preservation and dissemination of materials in the CHamoru language are key to developing CHamoru literacy and knowledge about our indigenous language, beliefs, historical experiences and cultural customs and traditions. The digital revolution has provided this generation with tools and a virtual platform to record and store materials and make these resources available to a wide range of stakeholders here in Guåhan, throughout the diaspora and to all interested parties. Our long-term goal is to house the most comprehensive collection of CHamoru resources in the world and make these resources readily available to the public.
