[223] In this number also the positions of the uinal and kin coefficients are reversed.

[225] The student will note that 12, not 13, tuns are recorded in A5. As explained elsewhere (see pp. [247], 2[48]), this is an error on the part of the ancient scribe who engraved this inscription. The correct tun coefficient is 13, as used above.
[226] This Secondary-series number is doubly irregular. In the first place, the kin and uinal coefficients are reversed, the latter standing to the left of its sign instead of above, and in the second place, the uinal coefficient, although it is 14, has an ornamental dot between the two middle dots.
[227] Since we counted backward 1.14.6 from 6 Cimi 4 Tzec to reach 10 Ahau 8 Chen, we must subtract 1.14.6 from the Initial-series value of 6 Cimi 4 Tzec to reach the Initial-series value of 10 Ahau 8 Chen.
[228] It is obvious that the kin and uinal coefficients are reversed in A17b since the coefficient above the uinal sign is very clearly 19, an impossible value for the uinal coefficient in the inscriptions, 19 uinals always being written 1 tun, 1 uinal. Therefore the 19 must be the kin coefficient. See also p. [110], footnote 1.
[229] The first glyph of the Supplementary Series, B6a, very irregularly stands between the kin period glyph and the day part of the terminal date.
[230] Incorrectly recorded as 12. See pp. [247], [248].
[231] In this table the numbers showing the distances have been omitted and all dates are shown in terms of their corresponding Initial-series numbers, in order to facilitate their comparison. The contemporaneous date of each monument is given in bold-faced figures and capital letters, and the student will note also that this date not only ends a hotun in each case but is, further, the latest date in each text.
[232] The Initial Series on the west side of Stela D at Quirigua is 9.16.13.4.17 8 Caban 5 Yaxkin, which was just 2 katuns later than 9.14.13.4.17 12 Caban 5 Kayab, or, in other words, the second katun anniversary, if the term anniversary may be thus used, of the latter date.
