· The TRT region Wooden Box is the only context where I have found the word k’ax.
· In this context, it occurs as part of a name – the name of a BBT official, rather than functioning as a noun meaning “forest”.
· It is not discussed in any paper or textbook. The only reference is two citations in EB, both referencing the TRT region Wooden Box:
o aj k’ax balam cn. Aj K’ax Balam (anthroponym) » ’AJ-k’a-xa BALAM-ma > aj k’ax balam TRT Wooden Box.
o k’ax n. forest » k’a-xa > k’ax “forest” TRT Wooden Box.
· I have not been able to find a source justifying the translation of “forest” for k’ax.
