·     This name is found in two inscriptions:

o CNC Panel 1 D5: it appears to be one of a list of three deities (in the presence of which a headband ritual for the ruler of CNC was performed).

o TIK Temple 1 Lintel 3 B6: it appears as the name of a deity captured when Jasaw Chan K’awiil of TIK defeated Yuknoom Yich’aak K’ahk’ of CLK. This was the turning point in Tikal’s long period of loss of influence to its greatest rival Calakmul.

·     This name could be read as Yaman Ajaw, Yajaw Man, or Man Yajaw. In connection with CNC Panel 1 D5, Guenter-ARotCLP.p6.para3.Discussion.l+3 has gone for: “Yajaw Man, a palanquin deity also named at Tikal in connection with Calakmul”. While the literal meaning of Yajaw K’ahk’ and Yajaw Te’ is quite straightforward, Yajaw Man remains obscure.
