· This variant is a boulder outline with two infixed elements (a “necklace” and “blades of grass”) in common with a number of other glyphs. The list below shows the unique element infixed in the top which distinguishes them from one another: o ba: LEM-like element. o ma: right-side-up AJAW-face. o t’u: KAWAK. o tz’e: a slightly curved, bold V with “dot protector” underneath (the “dot protector” replaces the “necklace”, and the bold V can sometimes be non-bold). o tz’u: K’IN. o HA’: cross-hatched circle. o “IMIX”: cross-hatched circle or LEM-like element (usually distinguished from HA’ by the blood cartouche). · A strong argument that this is tz’u is presented in MacLeod&Bíró-DUDW (2019).
