Richard'Wilk is an ethnographer who did his first field work among the Kekchi Maya of southern Belize (Wilk, 1991). He tells the story of an interview that he once carried out with a village elder. The interviewee was an old man who was well respected and of high status. His equally elderly wife was ostensibly excluded from this discussion between men by staying behind the walls of her house in her "private space", while the men conferred out front in the open. As the ethnographer began to ask the old man questions, however, the old woman made her presence known.
