In each plate I have numbered the hieroglyphs, giving each one its 
own number. Thus the hieroglyphs of the Copan altar (vol. i, p. 141) 
which I have called plate V*, are numbered from 1 to 36 according to 
this scheme—

And the right hand side of the Palenque Cross tablet, as given by 
Rav in his memoir published by the Smithsonian Institution (1880), has 
the numbers— 
2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 
2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 2035 
2040 2041 2042 2043 2044 2045 
2050 2051 2052 2053 2054 2055 
* * * * * *

3080 3081 3082 30835 3084 3085 
These are consecutive with the numbers which I have attached to the 
left-hand side, as given by STEPHENS. Whenever I have stated any 
results here, I have also given the means by which any one can number 
a copy of STEPHENS’S work in the way which I have adopted, and thus 
the means of testing my conclusions is in the hands of every one who 
desires to do so. : 
In cases where only a part of a hieroglyphic is referred to, I have 
placed its number in a parenthesis, as 1826 see (122), by which I mean 
that the character 1826 is to be compared with a part of the character 
122. The advantages of this system are many: for example; a memo- 
randum can easily be taken that two hieroglyphs are alike, thus 
2072 = 2020 and 2073 =2021. Hence the pair 2020 — 2021, read hori- 
zontally, occurs again at the point 2072 — 2073, ete. Horizontal pairs 
will be known by their numbers being consecutive, as 2020— 2021; verti- 
cal pairs will usually be known by their numbers differing by 10. Thus, 
2075 — 2085 are one above the other.
