By this time the reader, if he has studied the plate with care, has probably encountered one difficulty in the way of the explanation given; that there are usually _twelve_ large dots instead of _eleven_, as there should be, between the day signs; as, for example, between Kan No. 1 and Cib No. 2, in the upper row. This I am unable to explain, except on the supposition that the artist included but one of the day signs in the count, or that it was not the intention to be very exact in this respect. The fact that the number of dots in a row is not always the same, there being in some cases as many as thirteen, and in others but eleven, renders the letter supposition probable. In the scheme the number of dots in the lines is given as nearly as possible as on the plate. As there are four different series of years in the Maya calendar, the Cauac years, Kan years, Muluc years, and Ix years, it is necessary that we have four different tables, similar to that given for the Cauac years, to represent them, or to combine all in one table. As I have adopted in my former work[5] a scheme of combining them I will insert it here (Table III).
