PIK

 

·     No glyphs given in K&H, K&L, TOK, BMM9: 25EMC is the only source of this logogram.

·     The English Wikipedia article on huipil has a reference to pik “another kind of Mayan women clothing” (but that link is only to the Western “Petticoat”).

·     Do not confuse this with the homonym pik = “20 katuns” or “8000”.

·     Note that while the logogram for “20 katuns” / “8000” is read PIK with an alternative reading PIH, this logogram has only the reading PIK.
