SynopsisHach Winik may be the last comprehensive study of traditional Lacandon Maya society based on intensive ethnographic fieldwork. In the 1970s and 1980s, Boremanse collected cultural data and textual materials from two groups of Lacandon who still remained relatively isolated. Topics presented here include the history of Lacandon contact with other peoples, settlement patterns, the life cycle, social control, residence and marriage, the kinship system, and the ritual expression of these social domains., Hach Winik may be the last comprehensive study of traditional Lacandon Maya society based on intensive ethnographic fieldwork. Long isolated, culturally conservative, and bearing a mystique of Mesoamerican "primitivism," the Lacandon now live on the brink of cultural disintegration. Their habitat is all but destroyed by lumbering and by the large-scale invasion of other Maya peoples in search of land. In the 1970s and 1980s, Dr. Didier Boremanse collected cultural data and textual materials from two groups of Lacandon who still remained relatively isolated. Hach Winik describes and compares the cultural traditions of these two groups. Topics presented in this volume include the history of Lacandon contact with other peoples as well as settlement patterns, life cycle, social control, residence and marriage, the kinship system, and the ritual expression of these social domains. Statistical data are balanced by a wealth of descriptive detail concerning events and individuals. A number of oral narratives are also presented and include many words and utterances in the original language with English glosses.
