We see by examining the list of days in the Table No. u, that 
these three days follow each other in the order here given, thus: 
if the first is 6 Cib, the next is 7 Caban and the next 8 Ezanab. 
It follows, therefore, that the three days of any one of these 
groups must fall in the same month! and year, hence we have to 
search for but four years for each column—but 4 x 13 = 52 
years, an entire cycle. As the three numbers in a group will 
sufficiently designate the group, we will omit the names.

sisted on is, that they form a continuous term corresponding

We give one more example. In the second division of Plates xxx 
and xxx commencing on the left half of the former and continuing 
through the latter, we find a series of similar figures, except the 
‘It is not necessary as a matter of course, that three successive days always fall in 
the same month, but in this case they do. In the Dresden codex plates 5 1-38, we 
find similar three day columns, some of which do not conform to this rule.
