·    No glyphs given in K&H.

·    Not text listing in EB, K&H, BMM9, 25EMC.

·    Pronunciation: lack of agreement between T’ELES, TELES, TELECH. I am unaware of the reasons for positing T’ELES and TELECH; TELES has a known syllabogram-only spelling / substitution.

·    Specific meaning of basilisk:

o K&L.p19.#3: basilisk, lizard with a crest.

o 25EMC.pdfp46.#9: basilisk, lizard with a crest.

·    KuppratApp: wrinkled basilisk? child{hood} name of Ahkul Mo’ Nahb:

o KuppratApp doesn’t say I, II, or III.

o KuppratApp.1 is from PAL Temple 18 jambs A14a, which relates that he is the son of Tiwol Chan Mat, so we know that this is in fact Ahkul Mo’ Nahb III.

·    HoustonEtAl-TLK: Tzotzil teleš, for Basiliscus vittatus, a crested lizard with the surprising ability to run at a good clip over water.

·    Do not confuse this with the visually and semantically similar PAAT (also the longish head of a reptile – specifically, a lizard, and also meaning basilisk):

o PAAT often has a ti phonetic complement (which of course TELES never has).

o PAAT does not have anything fancy at the top of the head (except, optionally, three non-touching dots in an oval – the “bony” sign for reptiles and insects), whereas TELES often does have something fancy at the top of the head – either a distinct indentation / “bay” or parallel wavy lines (both possibly to signify the crest which TELES has).

 

·    The se is just the full head variant.
