262 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 23 took a long time for the water to dry up. It took a long time for the world to be set in order, whatever it was they did to the world. The greens grew, it seems. Every growing thing grew, since I'm sure it was the rainy season. It was probably during a particular month. I certainly don't remember very well. When their things multiplied, ah, then the Ladino ate apart. Now he had companions. They learned there now. Their children born of woman, children born of man, were born. That [Indian] woman taught them weaving. As soon as [the Ladina's] daughter was nine years old she knew how to weave, she knew how to grind and pat [corn]. Now she patted their tortillas, now she made their tortillas. They ate the same now. When the first family ate chicken they would give some to our countrymen. Now, when the Ladino came, he learned about what he was given. Just the same way, he ga—ve away [his things]. He had a hard c;-ne learning our language. The first man taught him. "Learn it, learn our language, because my wife doesn't understand Spanish. Me, I know Spanish, but me, I go to work. You are left behind alone with my wife, it seems. Talk together! My wife doesn't know Spanish, since she doesn't understand what you tell her," he said. Well, he learned. In three months the Ladino learned Spanish, [I mean] our language. He learned our language now, it seems. Now they talked to each other easily. They chatted now. They lacked nothing. The poor Ladino probably thought we were brothers now. Happily, they ate and drank since they had always been together. There weren't any other people, it seems. They lived as brothers, growing their corn together. [The Indian] went to hoe [the Ladino's] ground for him, our countryman hoed it. Then the other went for a day to work [for our countryman]. They hoed each other's land, they planted for each other. They planted their greens. They planted their beans. They planted their watermelon squash. Then they had corn. They had beans. They had watermelon squash. Their children were big now. They [themselves] grew old, they aged. They grew old together with that Ladino and with that woman, too. Now they sat at home. Just the children worked. Their children built other houses now. The children of the Ladino married our countryman's daughters. The children of the man, of the Ladino, it seems, married our countryman's girls. They married each other. Their houses were built. Gradually, gradually the world multiplied. Gradually. And there came, I don't know, I don't know if it was from Chamula, I don't know where the family 7imeltzaj li balamil k'utik x7elan k'utik xi ti tzpas ya7el ti balamil 7une, chch'i ya7el ti 7itaje chch'i ya7el ti k'u chch'i 7une yu7n yora vo7tik jna7 te nan k'usi 7ual mu xa jna7 lek bi 7a.

came from to settle. "My Zinacantec!" they said when they arrived, "Have you any work to be done? Because I never settle down, because I have no land. Won't you please give me, sell me however small [a piece of] your land?" said the [stranger]. "I'll sell some to you, but you are to work it. I'll join you at work, we'll work," [our countryman] told him. "Of course, let's work, my Zinacantec, if you'll give me a little bit of your tiny land," said the old Chamulan. He was old. "I'll give it to you, just so long as you work," said [our countryman]. The old man worked a week. He simply sle—pt on the job. "But I don't like the way you sleep. You're just stealing money. It's a mess. You're not worth a whoring damn just sleeping like that. Go on!" said [our countryman]. He left, the poor old Chamulan left. He went off crying now with his wife. He returned to his country. He went, because his home wasn't here, because they were being killed in his home [town]. He went off crying with his wife. He didn't go very far. He came back. The man came back to cry over it. "See here, my Zinacantec, please, be so kind, may God, our Holy Lady enter your heart! Sell me a little of your land! I'll do what you say. I won't sleep any more, because I really don't want to die, because the men of my town will kill me," he said. "So, you bastard, can't you stand being killed? Won't you behave and work quickly? You sleep! There is always sleep. We sleep at night. Since when do we see sleeping by day? We sleep at night. We get up at six o'clock. We begin work at dawn. We go. We go get our sheep or our mules, or our dogs or whatever we have. That's what we do. We don't sleep the way you do," said the man. "Ah, never mind, my Zinacantec, you can order me, you can tell me, because I don't want to die, it seems. Because they will kill me in my country," he said. He went. He was given a little land. Twelve meters, just so the house could be established. The poor Chamulan got his lumber. He built his house. The house was built now. His wife was there now. Our poor Chamulan settled down. He started to do his corn field. He prepared his little corn field. "I'll rent your land by the month, [I mean] by the year," he said. "Rent it, then!" said [our countryman]. He rented it. He paid by working. The poor Chamulan worked [for him] three weeks a year. He was given three weeks [of work]. So [the Chamulan] worked. He got used to it. Our Chamulan got used to it little by little. When they were very o—Id, they returned to their country. They went to get their land. They went to TONIK NIBAK 263 "Kulo7!" xi la k'otel.
