We have established 9.9.2.4.8 5 Lamat 1 Mol as the 'accession' date of Lord Shield Pacal. The 5 Lamat 1 Mol date is connected by distance numbers and/or 'accession' clauses to other known 'accession' dates in Palenque. The del Rio Tablet links 5 Lamat 1 Mol to 9.12.11.12.10 8 Oc 3 Kayab, the 'accession' date of Lord Shield Pacal's successor. On the Palace Tablet, 5 Lamat 1 Mol is linked to 9.13.10.6.8 5 Lamat 6 Xul, the date of 'accession' for Berlin's Subject B. The deliberate interconnection of the T713/757 dates is not accidental.
