Syllables
Banawa
Syllable Integrity was first presented at WCCFL XVI. This paper argues that parts of the same syllable may belong to different feet.

Suruwaha
Suruwaha, like Banawa, discussed in the previous paper, are Arawan languages with interesting prosodic structures, offering insights especially into foot and syllable theory. (The Suruwaha study is a much older study. I now think its proposals on sonority are largely wrong. However, I include it here in spite of its problems because it is data-rich, because it is a useful background on Arawan prosodic systems, and because some of its theoretical conclusions do seem useful).
