In this paper the text "Mĩ kã Sibö tskìnë" (When Sibö was born) from the Bribri oral tradition is analyzed in two respects: first, its structure is established by partitioning the text on the basis of topic and action continuity; secondly, the property of texture is analyzed, understanding by texture a set of linguistic mechanisms which makes a text hang cohesively together. The complete original text is included with morphemic translation and Spanish version. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
