378 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 23 "Hell, I'd like to have a contest. You'd see!" Me, I have wings. I'll race, hell, until I leave you behind," said that Mosquito. "Oh, God, how could you do it?" said [Deer]. "Let's try it out then!" said [Mosquito]. Let's try it. You'll see!" Sonofabitch, those mosquitoes swarmed on his ear. "Now, Mosquito!" said that Deer. [Mosquito] was whining there. He was whining there on [Deer's] ear. Whining on his ear, sitting on his ear. He never flew. He was bu—zzing there. "Now, Mosquito!" said that fucking Deer. "Eeee!" they went, sitting on his ear. So that Mosquito won, too. But he was sitting on [Deer's] ear. He scarcely flew! After that, then I think Rabbit came. I think they raced. He and Rabbit. Let's have a contest!" said that Rabbit. "Eh, who knows," said [Deer]. "But, okay, but forget it since I haven't any shoes anymore, myself," said [Rabbit]. "Well, let's try it out, then," said [Deer]. But it was that Deer who succeeded. Deer did better, because his legs were longer. It was that poor Rabbit who was left behind. So he was left behind. Rabbit didn't ever win again. It was Deer now who won. That's all I've heard.

When Zinacantecs Rode Home on Horseback T160 There is [a war story] like that about the elders of long ago. They would go as soldiers. They kept going to war, but it was always like that. We . . . the elders, it seems, just carried burdens, carried bullets. [The Mexican soldiers] never asked [what you wanted to do]. It was always just burdens—as if [you were] a mule, an animal, as we say. The [Mexicans'] soldiers were killed, it seems, where that war was. They were killed. Then [the Zinacantecs] spoke to that chief, the leader of the soldiers, as we say. They spoke to him. "Well, I guess we'll get into it," they said. "We'll see if we're killed. Who cares?" said those elders of long ago. Since they had chosen from among themselves. There was Thunderbolt. There was Fog. There was Whirlwind. They chose the few elders who always worked, it seems. "Well, if you can do something, then, do [us] the favor," said the leader of the [Mexican] soldiers, as we say. The war [chief], as we say. 7A taj 7ak'-k'ok' 7une 7a li, 7o la yech taj vo7ne moletik 7une.

"Well, I guess we'll join in," they went to see how their enemies could be killed. "Well, I guess you should go, Hawk."—There was a Hawk—"I guess you should go, Hawk," they said. Hawk went. Lord, he was flying off hi—gh up. "They're eating," [Hawk] said when he arrived [home]. "Well, if they're just about to eat, then, go on, then, Blowfly!" they said . . . that blowfly was told. Blowfly went. He arrived there, buzzing. Sonofabitch, in a minute, in a minute a—11 their food was just [filled with] maggots. They never ate. He laid [the eggs], but the maggots grew right away. You can't say they didn't grow right away! Sonofabitch, those [enemy] soldiers never ate. "Hell, some trouble's up, then!" they said. They never ate it. They threw it out for good. "Go on, Butterfly," [the elders] said. Butterfly went, too. But they were already getting prepared there. They were getting ready. "Get ready!" [Butterfly] said when he arrived [back where the elders were]. "All right," they said. "Let's go, then! Let's go, then!" said that Thunderbolt and Whirlwind and Fog. Lord, they went to attack them. [The enemy] were all finished. They were finished for good. The trouble ended once and for all. They had horses, it seems, those [Mexican] soldier chiefs, as we say. They had horses, it seems. Lord, it was the elders of long ago—they were the ones who came back mounted. Those chiefs, as we say, came back now on foot. They came now on foot, since [the elders] were able to win, you see. That's why the soldier chiefs could now come on foot, you see. They didn't win with their own men, you see. It was only the bearers, they were the only ones who won, it seems. Then the trouble ended, indeed. Who knows how much money was given to them. Lord, they got so much money! Since they were the ones to win, you see. Ye—s! They even arrived home sauntering in on horseback. Since they wouldn't make the effort on foot— since they won, you see. That's how the story ends. The cast of this version of "When the Zinacantecs Rode Home on Horseback" differs from Romin Teratol's only in the substitution of Fog for Tornado. The problem of attacking the That Peter went looking for a servant's job, as we say. He went to be a servant.
