See ing that his knowledge needed to live beyond his own lifetime\, Don Chabo took Hanks on as an apprentice\, intentionally teaching him the parts of h is practice that could be passed on.  \nIn a deeply personal lecture\, Ha nks takes us inside that apprenticeship and the world Don Chabo shared wit h him: a world inhabited by humans\, spirits\, and other beings\, in which words\, gestures\, places\, and ritual actions carried profound power. Ha nks will reflect on how Don Chabo taught\, what he believed could and coul d not be transmitted\, and what it means to carry another person's knowled ge after they are gone.  \nPart remembrance\, part exploration of Maya sp iritual practice\, the evening offers a rare window into a relationship th at changed both teacher and student.  \nFrom Dr. Hanks:   In the course of ethnographic fieldwork in the municipio of Oxkutzcab\, Yucatan\, betwe en 1977 and 1996\, I came to work very closely with a Maya hmèen ritual e xpert\, shaman (lit. 'do-er')\, named Sebastian Castillo Mo\, known locall y as Don Chabo (deceased 1996). What started as a fortuitous conversation developed into an apprenticeship in which Don Chabo explicitly undertook t o teach me the teachable parts of his frankly charismatic practice\, in or der that the knowledge be passed on and live on after his own death. This lecture aims to give the audience a sense of the world of being and beings that Don Chabo lived in\, a deeply spiritual world organized around basic principles\, occupied by human\, spirit\, and 'natural' beings. It unfold s in three parts: (1) the relationship between Don Chabo and me\, includin g notes on Don Chabo’s teaching style\, (2) a brief sketch of some of hi s main commitments regarding the spatiotemporal organization of the world of being\, and (3) a selective sketch of the verbal and corporeal register in which he moved spirits.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWILLIAM HANKS earned t he Joint PhD in Linguistics and Anthropology at The University of Chicago (1983)\, where he remained as a professor in both departments until 1996. Since 2000\, he has held the Berkeley Distinguished Chair in Linguistic An thropology at UC Berkeley\, served as Chair of the Anthropology Department \, (2001-2006) and as founding Director of Social Science Matrix\, Berkele y’s flagship research institute for cross-disciplinary social science (2 013-19). A former Guggenheim Fellow (1996)\, he received the Gumperz Award for Lifetime Achievement from the International Pragmatics Association (2 025) and was elected corresponding member of the Académie des Inscription s et Belles Lettres\, Institut de France (2025). \nHis research combines s ocial anthropology\, linguistics and history\, with a focus on Maya langua ge and culture in Yucatan Mexico where he has conducted 36 months of archi val and field work among Maya speakers. He is the author of numerous artic les and books\, including REFERENTIAL PRACTICE\, LANGUAGE AND LIVED SPACE AMONG THE MAYA (U Chicago Press 1990) and CONVERTING WORDS\, MAYA IN THE A GE OF THE CROSS (U California Press\, 2010)\, winner of the Edward Sapir B ook Prize\, Society for Linguistic Anthropology and the Staley Book Prize\ , School for Advanced Research.
