Eveventa Anav—3960 Days 
Second glyph—The stone is so badly mutilated that this glyph can not be restored 
with certainty. If the characters that are tolerably preserved be 5, 9, and 2, the 
other should be 44, but I distrust their identity. 
Third glyph—There may be two glyphs here, though I think not. The 20-day 
period being the factor to be raised, it requires 198 for a multiplier to bring it to the 
necessary total. The character to the left of it being 1, there is good reason for 
supposing it to represent 73, and the right-hand sign at the top being 18, it follows 
that there can be no multiplication of these numerals, but that they must be added; 
hence the remaining characters must aggregate 107. The comb sign—though dupli- 
cated here, as in many other places, to give it a more ornamental effect—probably 
represents but 20. That leaves 87 to be accounted for by the remaining character. 
It is a sign that occurs many times, but its central part is seldom twice alike, some- 
times being a single bar, sometimes two, and again something quite different. Here 
it has the appearance of the spire in the akbal sign, which stands for 7. On either 
side is a comb sign for 20, raised to twice that value bya line of dots. It is possible, 
therefore, that the two together may represent 80, the particular center part in this 
instance raising the full value of the character to 87. 
TweL_rro AHAU—4320 Days 
Second glyph—aAt first view the principal factors appear to be identical with the 
characters representing 108 and 18. But the ball in the center of the first is double, 
and there is cross hatching on both, which may modify the meaning. The character 
at the bottom seems to be only a beginning sign, though its form is somewhat 
unusual. If the right-hand sign be 18 and the subfix nothing, the other character 
must represent 240; but there is too much uncertainty involved to warrant confidence 
in this deduction. 
Third glyph—Here again we are nonplussed. We know the bouquet sign for 6 
(the same as that over the symbol for Zac) and the ymix character for 5; but the lat- 
ter has a peculiar marking at the top, and we do not know how that may alter its 
value. The character over it may be a multiple of 20, as it has the general appear- 
ance of the wing sign for that number with a qualifying mark at the left part of it. 
For a reason that will be made evident later on, we will assume that it represents 
120, and the ymix character 6—120 x 6=720 * 6=4320. 
THIRTEENTH AHAU—4680 Days 
Second glyph—Here the signs for 9, 5 and 4 are plain, indicating that the other 
character must be 26—9 & 5=45 K 4=180 & 26=4680. 
Third glyph—The chief factor here is a 260-day sign which we encounter else- 
where. It consists of the ahauv sign, doubled in value by the surrounding row of dots, 
and ineclosed in the ymix character for 5—4 x 2=8 +5=13, and then multiplied by 
20, denoted by the duplicate comb sign below—13 x 20=260. There are just eight- 
een of these periods in 13 ahaus; hence the character to the right must represent 18. 
Fourth glyph—A beginning sign before a glyph that must necessarily be a symbol 
for a thirteenth ahau or 13 ahaus. 
FourreentH Anavu-—5040 Days 
Second glyph—There is doubt if this was intended for a single glyph, or if two 
glyphs were artfully or accidentally mixed up. The characters, moreover, being so 
nearly illegible that there is no certainty about them, it would be useless to attempt 
a solution of the puzzle. 
Third glyph—A head tha\ appears to be a compound of the chuen and ahau heads. 
As it probably represents an ahau, the sign in front of it must stand for 14.
