The only places where a year 4 Kan appears are at the dates
55.13. 2.14.0.0.[3] 9 Ahau 18 Cumhu Year 4 Kan, and
57. 2.14.14.0.0. 9 Ahau 18 Tzec Year 4 Kan.
But as the words used are that 6 years (or tuns) remained before the end
of the katun, and as a slightly longer time than just 6 tuns may have
remained, and as the month Zip in which the death of Ahpula occurred is
the third month of the year and so is near the beginning of the year 4
Kan, it is quite possible that the beginning of the Tun 14 may have been
in the latter part of the preceding year, in which case, in addition to
the preceding dates, the following date might be the one which we are
seeking:
55. 9.17.14.0.0. 9 Ahau 3 Zac Year 3 Cauac.
[3] It is necessary to remember that, by Goodman's methods, these
figures represent periods of past time. Thus the number 2 of the katun
means that 2 katuns have passed, and that the current katun is what we
should call the third; and that 0.0 means that a full count of uinals
and kins has occurred and that the current uinal and kin are what we
should call the first.
As 9 Ymix 19 Zip is said to be in the year 4 Kan, we shall find this
date before the dates of the beginning of Tun 14 in the first two cases
and after the beginning of Tun 14 in the last case. This date of 9 Ymix
19 Zip will then be numbered thus, placing the three dates in
consecutive order:
