This newsletter details some direct evidence regarding the tomb of Chan Bahlum and its location beneath the island monument. The evidence comes from the hieroglyphic inscriptions of Chan Bahlum and his successor, Kan Xul, and includes both well-known and obscure inscriptions from the Palenque area. My argument is based on interpretations brought forward by some of the leading scholars in the field and weaves together an elegant and impressive link between the remains at Palenque and the distant island monument. I have come to expect nothing less from this sophisticated ancient monarch.
Enjoy! Happy Ahau Day!
