The three groups of four hieroglyphs each are arranged as follows:--

1 2 5 6 9

3 4 7 8 10

11

12.

Of these hieroglyphs 1, 5 and 9 are the head already numbered 1 and 5 on

2b; 2, 6 and 10 are the cross _b_; 3, 7 and 11 are three different heads,

all, as it seems, having the Akbal sign, and 11 having also the numeral 6.

4 is again (see 5 on 2a above) the Kan-Imix sign, 8 a Kin with suffix (the

east?) and the numeral 16 as prefix; finally 12 is Cimi (A). Do the numbers

16 and 6 refer to the 16th and 6th of the 17 and 15 days standing below

them? The beginning of this Tonalamatl III Oc seems to me to fall on an

especially auspicious day (hieroglyph _a_).
