The date of Lord Chan-Bahlum's death is more obscure than that of his birth. The date 9.12.19.14.12 5 Eb 5 Kayab is prominent, but it does not appear with death records. We believe his death is recorded on the Palace Tablet, which is a tablet of his successor. At K6-L6 his accession date, 9.12.11.12.10 8 Oc 3 Kayab occurs joined by a distance number 6.12 to 9.12.11.5.18 6 Etz'nab 11 Yax, the date of Lord Shield Pacal's death (J9-J14). 8 Oc 3 Kayab is followed by four glyph groups which we propose as an alternate glyph group for accession. *
