·    There is considerable doubt that this glyph consists of AHK with infixed K’IN: [K’IN]AHK è k’in ahk = “bright/sun turtle”; instead, it’s probably an independent logogram, with a totally different reading.

·    As sometimes is the case, the EG is very different from the toponym of the seat of government.
