·     Distinguishing characteristic is JANAAB – either the abstract or representational (bird-head) variant.

·     Features:

o Left – HUL (or later JUL, as in YAX Lintel 10 B1):

§ An “old” variant with an oval outline composed of many dots on 3 sides with variations inside.

§ Not optional, but optionally dropped in infixing in Glyph-F.

§ If not dropped when infixing, then doesn’t infix but stays on the left.

o Right – JAN/JANAAB – either the abstract or the bird head variant:

§ See JAN/JANAAB for the 2 variants (abstract or bird head).

§ The abstract variant of JAN has either:

·       A circle of dots as border.

·       A reinforced circle with a dotted spine.

§ In K&L.p65.G3.2, there seems to be a NAL-like element above the JANAAB – this might however be an incorrectly drawn version of the abstract variant of TI’, when conflated with Glyph-F = ti’-huun.

·     The HUL and the JAN/JANAAB often but not always becomes detached from one another when Glyph-G is infixed in Glyph-F:

o Detaches: PAL ST A9, K&L.p65.G3.3 = MC.p50.G3.1, K&H.p51.TabVIII.3.

o Doesn’t detach: PAL TFC West J. B1.

·     The HUL is absent in YAX Lintel 10 B1, the bird head is the diagnostic.
