But the end of this text has not been reached with the date 9 Chuen 9 Kankin in F1 G1. Passing over F2 G2, the meanings of which are unknown, we reach in F3 an inverted Ahau with the coefficient 5 above it. As explained on page [72], this probably signifies 5 kins, the inversion of the glyph changing its meaning from that of a particular day sign, Ahau, to a general sign for the kin day period (see fig. [34], d). The writer recalls but one other instance in which the inverted Ahau stands for the kin sign—on the north side of Stela C at Quirigua.

We have then another Secondary-series number consisting of 5 kins, which is to be counted from some date, and since Secondary-series numbers are usually counted from the date next preceding them in the text, we are justified in assuming that 9 Chuen 9 Kankin is our new starting point.

Counting 5 forward from this date, according to rules 1, 2, and 3 (pp. [139], [140], and [141], respectively), the terminal date reached will be 1 Cib 14 Kankin, and this latter date is recorded in G3-G4. Compare G3 with the sign for Cib in A7 and in figure [16], z, and G4 with the sign for Kankin in figure [19], y, z. Moreover, since the Initial-series value of 9 Chuen 9 Kankin was calculated above as 9.12.14.10.11,

the Initial-series value of this new date, 1 Cib 14 Kankin, also can be calculated from it:

9.12.14.10.11 9 Chuen 9 Kankin
5
9.12.14.10.16 1 Cib 14 Kankin

Passing over G5 as unknown, we reach in G6-G7 another Secondary-series number. The student will have little difficulty in identifying G6 as 2 uinals, 5 kins, and G7 as 1 katun. It will be noted that no tun sign appears in this number, which is a very unusual condition. By far the commoner practice in such cases in which 0 units of some period are involved is to record the period with a coefficient 0. However, this was not done in the present case, and since no tuns are recorded, we may conclude that none were involved, and G6-G7 may be written 1.(0).2.5. Reducing this number to units of the first order, we have:

G7 = 1 × 7,200 = 7,200
([[189]]) 0 × 360 = 0
G6 = 2 × 20 = 40
G6 = 5 × 1 = 5
——
7,245

Remembering that the starting point from which this number is counted is the date next preceding it, 1 Cib 14 Kankin, and applying rules 1, 2, and 3 (pp. [139], [140], and [141], respectively), the terminal date reached will be 5 Imix 19 Zac; this latter date is recorded in G8-G9. Compare G8 with the sign for Imix in figure [16], a, b, and G9 with the sign for Zac in figure [19], s, t. Moreover, since the Initial Series of 1 Cib 14 Kankin was obtained by calculation from the date next preceding it, the Initial Series of 5 Imix 19 Zac may be determined in the same way.

9.12.14.10.16 1 Cib 14 Kankin
1. 0.[[189]]2.5
9.13.14.13. 1 5 Imix 19 Zac

With the above date closes the known part of this text, the remaining glyphs, G10-G12, being of unknown meaning.
