•SEy^*" Introduction Manuscripts The Books of Chilam Balam of Yucatan are so called because of the sermon (prophecy) texts that occur in some of them, which are identified as the work of the Spokesman of the Jaguar (Chilam Balam), the official prophet of the katun (twenty-year cycle). Conventionally, they are mainly named after the towns in which they were found, and fourteen Books have been so titled, even though only five contain the defining sermons (chapters 7, 9, 10, 13, and 21 of the present volume). These are the Chumayel, Tizimin, Mani, Chan Cah, and Kaua. A sixth, the Tusik, contains "The Language of Zuyua" (chapters 30 and 31) and is therefore germane to this volume. The others are not: the Ixil because it is medicinal in character, the Tekax and Nah (of Teabo) because they are calendrical, and the Hocaba, Nabula, Telchac, Tihosuco, and Tixkokob because they are lost. Three other documents have sometimes been classified as Books of Chilam Balam but should not be: the Cuaderno de Teabo, a medical text, and the Crónica de Oxkutzcab (or Crónica de los Xiu) and Crónica de Calkini, purely historical works. These are certainly useful parts of general Mayan literature, as are the Ritual of the Bacabs and the Títulos de Ebtun, but they have nothing to do with the Spokesman of the Jaguar. I accept Barrera Vásquez' argument (1948: 39) that the Teabo is merely another name for the Tekax, and I accept as well his reclassification of the Oxkutzcab. In addition to the sermons already mentioned, the four central Books of the Chilam Balam tradition—the Chumayel, Mani, Tizimin, and Kaua— share a series of katun histories, and the first three of them have some chronicles in common. Thanks to the translation of Roys (1967) in English (first edition, 1933) and those of Mediz Bolio (1930) and Barrera (1948) in Spanish, the Chumayel has come to be the best known of all the Books, but sections of the texts (especially the chronicles) have been translated by a number of others. A concordance of the various manuscripts and translations will be found in appendix A. The history of the manuscripts is ably summarized by Barrera (1948: 17ff.), updating previous treatments by Tozzer (1921) and Roys (1933). I do not agree with Barrera and Roys that the manuscript of the Chumayel was compiled as it stands by Juan Josef Hoil in 1782. It shares with the Tizimin and the Mani the tale of Antonio Martinez (chapter 46), which
