Abstract
While working on a project to prepare archived Mvskoke language materials for public access, the author encountered narratives that members of the speech community consider to be dangerous for some audiences. This paper demonstrates that this response would be mitigated if rich ethnographic information about these texts was available. The author suggests that present-day collectors of linguistic material should include ethnographic information relating to their corpora as part of an ethical consideration for future users.
