·    Features:

o Top:

§ The “Eclipse Glyph”: K’IN (sun) or UH {moon} with flanking elements (with cross-hatching).

§ A skull-like element.

o Bottom: crossed legs.

·    Note: Grube-FoGX.p8.fig13e, Grube-FoGX.p8.fig13f & Stuart-TPM.p162 B11 have a variant which doesn’t fit into this pattern.

·    In Grube-FoGX.p8.fig13i, Grube-FoGX.p8.fig13j the K’IN between two “darkened” elements represents an eclipse (seen also in the Madrid, Dresden, and Paris Codex); Dresden (snake underneath), Right: Paris (turtle underneath).

·    Note that at least half of the moon is “dark” in Grube-FoGX.p8.fig13a, which is more than normal – in a conventional moon, there is darkness, but much less.
