This book presents a recollection of narratives and songs released between 2014 and 2023, on the island of Atauro (East Timor). The oral tradition of Atauro's three groups (Manroni, Humangili, Adade) is brought together for the first time in a multilingual edition, combining the local languages (Dadu'a and Rasua, Hresuk, Raklungu) and their translation in Tetun. This vast body of mythology recounts the origin of Atauro, pulled out of the sea by arrows, the songs gleaned from the sky, and many other tales that illustrate the exceptional culture of this small island. The large original corpus is complemented by a series of 20 texts on different aspects of local culture, written by researchers from different disciplines (archaeology, ethno-botany, geography, anthropology, ethnomusicology, and eco-anthropology).The book's originality lies in the collaboration between the French and Timorese researchers and the populations who validated and decided on the choice of texts, with the help of three native interpreters from each of the linguistic groups. This book is therefore the result of a collective effort, supported by ANR (project POPEI-Coll 'Politiques culturelles, Patrimoines locaux et approches collaboratives dans l'est insulindien', ANR n°18-CE27-020) and encouraged by the state Secretariat for Art and Culture in Timor Leste.
