o It can be on the left or on top of the main sign.

·     There are many variants of the main sign, differing considerably from one another.

·     Features of the main sign: T’AB, LEM, “ladder”, CH’AB, HUL, AHIIN?.

·     Variants (6) of the main sign:

o A. 5-T’AB[LEM[“ladder”]]:

§ The T’AB has an Infixed LEM, which, in turn, has an infixed “ladder”.

o B. 5-T’AB>-LEM:

§ The interior of the T’AB is cross hatched.

§ The LEM is below the T’AB.

o C. 5-CH’AM-LEM:

§ The CH’AM grasps a LEM.

§ There can be variation on the LEM element: it can be a regular LEM or be infixed with a “ladder”.

o D. 5-CH’AM-AHIIN?:

o E. 5-HUL-CH’AB:

§ The HUL is above the CH’AB.

o F. Hard to classify – there’s a LEM, maybe a TZ’IKIN?.
