1. Western Pantar

   Holton, Gary (January 2014, The Papuan Languages of Timor, Alor and Pantar: Volume 1. Sketch Grammars)

   Western Pantar (ISO 639-3 code lev) is spoken by an estimated 10,804 people on the southwestern portion of Pantar, west of the Sirung volcanic massif. The dry region of western Pantar is separated from the northern peninsula of the island by a physical barrier consisting of a number of steep-walled canyons. No road yet connects the northern peninsula with the western part of the island. In most of the academic literature the language is referred to as Lamma, though that name more properly refers to only a single dialect of the language. This description is based on first-hand field work by the author between 2004 and 2010.

   During Expedition 357, coring was attempted at two sites in the western area of Atlantis Massif: Sites M0071 and M0073 (Figure F1; Table T1). However, material was only recovered from Site M0071. Multibeam echo sounder data acquired on this survey, combined with preexisting data sets, were evaluated prior to each site to guide the drill teams with regard to anticipated seabed conditions and slope.
