NOTES
** No one seems to know why the rabbit is called "the mayor."
** Slow, traditional Mayan dance, and the melody which accompanies it. The word also means 'marimba' and 'music' in the Qánjobál Mayan language.
*** An inexplicable change of instrument. When the storyteller, don Pedro Miguel Say was asked about it, he simply said that he had learned the story this way.
**** Some Qánjobáles insist that there are lions living in the Cuchumatán Mountains near their homeland.
