| A second reference to Lord Shield Pacal's death may be contained earlier in the Tablet of the 96 Glyphs. At C1-D1, we find "Lord Shield Pacal/5 'ben-ich' katuns". The passage seems to refer to 9.11.2.1.11 9 Chuen 9 Mac, but at that date Lord Shield Pacal was only in his third katun of life. Since his death at death was 4.1.10.18 and he had entered into the 5th katun of life, it is possible that this phrase at C1-D1 refers to his death and is not linked to 9 Chuen 9 Mac. |
