Bayono-Awbono languages

New Guinea and Pacific Language Families

Bayono-Awbono is a small cluster of Papuan languages spoken in Papua province, Indonesia, south of the Somahai languages, within the Awyu-Ok group of the Trans-New Guinea family. Documentation remains sparse, consisting mainly of a few hundred words recorded during first-contact fieldwork by Wilbrink in 2004 and Hischier in 2006, and the cluster comprises four varieties, Bayono, Awbono, Densar and Kovojab.
