| 3. The third occurrence of the date 9.14.10.4.2 9 Ik 5 Kayab is on the Tablet of the Slaves at C1: '(9.14.10.4.2) 9 Ik 5-te -Kayab'. Another date (9.14.11.12.14) 8 Ix 7 Yaxkin immediately follows at D1. These dates cannot be definitely fixed in the Long Count, but we believe that after the second date of the Tablet (9.11.18.9.17) 7 Caban 15 Kayab (B4), the dates jump into the 14th katun. The text ends with the 3-katun anniversary of 7 Caban 15 Kayab, at (9.14.18.9.17) 1 Caban 15 Uo at G5b-H5a. The first event glyph group after the dates 9 Ik 5 Kayab and 8 Ix 7 Yaxkin is the 'T713/757' accession compound (C2). |
