Moreover, in FlO is recorded the endof Katim 14. Compare the ending prefix in this glyph with figure37, a-Ji. This would seem to indicate that the date in F7-F8,6 Ahau13 Muan, closed Katun 14 of Cycle 9 of the Long Count. Whetherthis be true or not may be tested by finding the Initial-series valuecorresponding to 6 Ahau 13 Muan, as above: 1 11 Imix 14 Yax • 0. 0. 0 6 Ahau 13 Muan 1 In this number alao the positions of the uinal and kin coefficients are reversed.
