· No glyphs given in K&H, K&L, TOK, 25EMC.
· BMM9 lists it in two spots: once under “Supernatural Heads” and once under “Skulls”. It is clearly based on CRN HS element 56 pE2.
· Formerly called the “Stone-Headed Creature”.
· Found as “Glyph-X” when Glyph-C is TMG with coefficient 4, 5, or 6.
· BeliaevEtAl-NGA is the paper where the reading KAMIS is first proposed/demonstrated for the “Stone-Headed Creature”.
· Do not confuse this with the semantically related chapaat / chapaht, and wak, which are two other words for “centipede”.
· Features:
o KAWAK infixed at the top of the head.
o Beak and large eye.
o Frequently has a large darkened / cross-hatched eye.
o Frequently with final phonetic complement si.
o Optional (but common) “shiner” element “LEM” at the back of the head.
o Initial phonetic complement ka doesn’t occur very often (QRG Stela F, west side, D7).
· Do not confuse this with the visually (very slightly!) similar TZ’IKIN:
o They both have a beak and large eye.
o LEM/KAWAK:
§ TZ’IKIN has LEM at the top of the head whereas KAMIS has (an optional) LEM at the back of the head.
§ Instead, KAMIS has KAWAK at the top of the head (this is the distinguishing characteristic, as the LEM is optional).
o KAMIS has darkening (cross-hatching) in large square eye (but optional), TZ’IKIN never does.
