Passing over tlie next three glyphs we arrive at another reckoning, 

 D 4 gives 10 days, 11 Chuens, 1 Ahau, and the first half of C 5 gives 



1 Katun. 



1 Katun 7200 days. 



lAhau 360 „ 



11 Chuens (11x20) .... 220 „ 



10 Days. 10 „ 



7790 days. 



7665 „ = 21 years. 

 125 days. 



Adding 7790 days or 21 years and 125 days to the previous date, 

 1 Gib 14 Kankin, it will bring us to 4 Gimi 14 TJo in the thirty-fifth 

 year of the annual calendar, and we find this date expressed in the 

 inscription in the glyphs D 5 and C 6. 



Passing over the next three glyphs we arrive at another reckoning 

 (E 1), 3 Ahaus, 8 Chuens, 15 days : — 



3.Ahaus 1080 days. 



8 Chuens 160 „ 



15 Days 15 „ 



1255 days. 



1095 ,, = 3 years. 

 160 days. 



Adding 3 years and 160 days to the last date, 4 Gimi 14 Z7b, brings 

 us to 11 Ymix 14 Yax in the thirty-eighth year of the annual calen- 

 dar ; this is the date we find expressed in the glyphs E 2 and F 2 of 

 the inscription. 



It is true that in the sign in the glyph E 2 is not the sign usually 

 employed for the day Ymix, but that it is a day sign Ave know from 

 the fact that it is included in a cartouche, and I am inclined to think 

 that the more usual Ymix sign (something like an open hand with 

 the fingers extended) was inclosed in the oval on the top of the 

 grotesque head, but it is too much worn for identification. 



Passing over seven glyphs, the next reckoning occurs at F 6, which 

 gives : — 



4 Chuens 80 days. 



19 Days 19 „ 



99 days. 



Adding 99 days to the last date, 11 Ymix 14 Yax, brings us to 

 6 Ahau 13 Muan in the same year, and we find this date expressed in 

 F 7 and F 8.
