On Plate 70 of the Codex the character shown in Fig. 61 occurs, accompanied, as here indicated, by the numeral character for "thirteen" in black. There is little, if any, room to doubt that this is here used to denote the month Pax. As it bears no resemblance to any of the day characters, the accompanying numerals would certainly lead us to believe it denoted one of the months, and, if so, the one named. Another reason for this belief is that on the same plate—in fact, in the next line—are the characters for Cumhu and Yaxkin, each accompanied by numerals. But in this case, that for the former (Cumhu) is given thus: 
and that for Yaxkin thus: 
, omitting the appendage added by Landa. Turning to Plate 69 of the same work, we observe what appears to be the same character in the form shown in Fig. 62. Another similar figure on the same plate has the little upper circle

Fig. 63. cross-hatched, but this is unaccompanied by numerals, though there is another by the side of it as in Fig. 63. In the same column we can detect without doubt the characters for the months Yaxkin, Poop, and Mac.
On Plates VII*, IX*, and XIX* of the Manuscript, what appears to be the same symbol occurs in the form shown in Fig. 64, with the numeral character for five annexed in two cases 
Fig. 64. (Plates VII* and IX*). In one instance four bars are distinctly shown, but in the one on Plate IX* the bar to the right is solid; the one on Plate Fig. 64. VII* is as represented in Fig. 64, proving, as I think, that this difference has no material significance. Can this be used here as the symbol of the month? If so, it is the only month symbol I have been able to detect in the Manuscript. The inference is therefore strongly against this assumption. The first two (Plates VII* and IX*) occur in that part of the Manuscript which, according to my interpretation, relates to 'the festival of the Bee-keepers, and in the middle division, along the lower margin of which we see what are evidently intended to denote offerings. Among them in one place immediately below the character there are two groups, one of three and the other of two red Kans in vases; in another place the leg of a deer. We also find the figure of a deer's leg in immediate connection with our character on Plate VII*. The Maya name for a tortilla
