[193] Since the Maya New Year's day, 0 Pop, always fell on the 16th of July, the day 3 Yax always fell on Jan. 15th, at the commencement of the dry season.

[194] Since 0 Pop fell on July 16th (Old Style), 18 Kayab fell on June 19th, which is very near the summer solstice, that is, the seeming northern limit of the sun, and roughly coincident with the beginning of the rainy season at Quirigua.

[196] Bracketed dates are those which are not actually recorded but which are reached by numbers appearing in the text.

[197] Although not recorded, the number 1.14.6 is the distance from the date 9.15.5.0.0 reached by the Secondary Series on one side to the starting point of the Secondary Series on the other side, that is, 9.15.6.14.6 6 Cimi 4 Tzec.

[199] This is one of the two Initial Series which justified the assumptions made in the previous text that the date 12 Caban 5 Kayab, which was recorded there, had the Initial-series value 9.14.13.4.17, as here.

[200] This is the text in which the Initial-series value 9.15.6.14.6 was found attached to the date 6 Cimi 4 Tzec.

[202] The frontlet seems to be composed of but one element, indicating for this head the value 8 instead of 1. However, as the calculations point to 1, it is probable there was originally another element to the frontlet.
