A Distance Number of 5.3 follows at M13. At N13-M14 are two glyph groups, which appeared earlier in the text immediately after the Distance Number leading from the death of Lord Shield Pacal to the accession of Lord Chan-Bahlum. The parallelism again seems to be deliberate. The second Distance Number, only 29 days less than the earlier one, almost certainly connects the date of Lord Chan-Bahlum's death to the accession date of his successor. |
