The coefficient of A4 is very clearly 4 dots,that is, 4, and consequently this glj^jh agrees with the day as de-termined by calculation, 4 Ahau. Passing over B4, A5, B5, and A6,we reach ia B6 the closing gljrph of the Supplementary Series, hererecorded with a coefficient of 9. Compare B6 with figure 65. Themonth glyph follows in A7 with the coefficient 13. Comparing thislatter glyph with the month signs in figiu-e 19, it is evident that themonth Kayab (fig. 19, d-f) is recorded in A7, which reads, therefore,13 Kayab. .Hence the whole text records the Initial Series Ahau 13 Kayab. This Initial Series is extremely important, because it records theearliest contemporaneous ^ date yet found on a monument ia theMaya territory. In plate 11 is figm-ed the Initial Series from t
