Further notice of this combination will be given under the fourth day, _Kan_. The character shown in plate LXVIII, 26, from Tro. 20*d, is erroneously given by Seler as an example of the _kan-imix_ symbol. The two glyphs on the mat figure are unquestionably _imix_ symbols, though of the two different types shown in plate LXIV, 1 and 5. He suggests that here it replaces the deity symbol, but this is contradicted by the fact that in both groups where it appears the deity symbol is present. The mat-like figure, which is probably a determinative, shows that it refers to the sack, bag, or kind of hamper which the women figured below bear on the back, filled with corn, bones, etc. As _mucuc_ signifies "portmanteau, bag, sack, etc," _mucub_ "a bag or sack made of sackcloth," and _mucubcuch_ "to carry anything in a sack or folded in a shawl," it is more than probable we have in these words the signification of the symbol. The duplication of the _imix_ symbol may be to denote the plural; or, as the words come from a root signifying "secret, hidden, covered," it may be to intensify. It is noticeable also that the latter or right-hand _Imix_ symbol is similar to that used for the mouth _Mac_. In the right section of Dres. 41b is the glyph shown in plate LXIV, 11, which, according to the phonetic system that appears to prevail in this writing, may be translated _yulpolic_, from _yulpol_, "to smooth or plane wood," or, as given by Henderson (MS. Lexicon), "to smooth, plane, or square timber, to beat off the log." This interpretation, which is given here merely because of its relation to the symbol which follows, is based in part on the following evidence: The left character, which has _y_ as its chief phonetic element, is the same as the upper character in the symbol for the month _Yax_ (plate LXIV, 12), and also the upper character of the symbol for the month _Yaxkin_ (plate LXIV, 13). Other evidence of its use with this value will be presented farther on, and also in reference to the right character of the above-mentioned symbol (plate LXIV, 11), which has been given _p_ as its chief phonetic element. By reference to the figure below the text the appropriateness of this rendering is at once apparent, as here is represented an individual in the act of chipping off the side of a tree. This he appears to be doing by holding in his left hand an instrument resembling a frow, which he strikes with a hatchet.
