Tlapaneco is a designation frequently found in older sources for the Me’phaa people of Guerrero. Their communities, especially in the Montaña region, have musical histories and practices that vary by locality and celebration. In sound archives, inherited names can help retrieve recordings but require notes explaining their relationship to current self-identification. This category locates documents published under the term Tlapaneco. For each item, community, language, performers, and recording occasion should be checked. One recording cannot establish a uniform repertoire for all Me’phaa communities, and a historical catalogue label should not replace the names used by the people documented.
