- summary: As the fish belongs to god B in a symbolic sense, so the god is represented fishing in Dr. 44 (1). Furthermore the following four well-known symbols of sacrificial gifts appear in connection with god B in the Dresden manuscript; a sprouting kernel of maize (or, according to Förstemann, parts of a mammal, game), a fish, a lizard and a vulture's head, as symbols of the four elements.

- summary: [7-*] Strictly speaking, in Maya _chilan_ means interpreter, mouth-piece, from _chij_, the mouth, and in this ordinary sense frequently occurs in other writings. So of the epochs, or _katuns_, of Maya history; there are three or more copies in these books which he does not seem to have compared with the one he furnished Stephens.

- summary: MEMORANDA ON THE MAYA CALENDARS USED IN THE BOOKS OF CHILAN BALAM BY CHARLES P. BOWDITCH (From the American Anthropologist (N. S.), Vol. 3, January-March, 1901) NEW YORK G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS 1901 MEMORANDA ON THE MAYA CALENDARS USED IN THE BOOKS OF CHILAN BALAM BY CHARLES P. BOWDITCH Dr Brinton, in his _Maya Chronicles_, has translated the following passages from the Book of Chilan Balam of Mani: ... in the thirteenth Ahau Ahpula died; for six years the count of the thirteenth Ahau will not be ended; the count of the year was toward the East, the month Pop began with (the day) fourth Kan; the eighteenth day of the month Zip (that is) 9 Ymix, was the day on which Ahpula died; and that the count may be known in numbers and years, it was the year 1536. In the Chilan Balam books, the katuns are named as Katun 13 Ahau, Katun 11 Ahau, etc., these being the days with which they begin or with which the previous katun ended; and as after thirteen katuns the same name is again given, this nomenclature fixes a date within a period which equals 13 multiplied by the number of days in a katun.
