The differences between the two passages are: (1) the 'birth' date 9.10.2.6.6 2 Cimi 19 Zotz' is not recorded, and (2) the person who was born is not specifically mentioned, but it is certain that Lord Chan-Bahlum is implied as the subject of both 'event' glyphs. On the Tablet of the Sun at P12-Q12, the actual record of 2 Cimi 19 Zotz' appears. The Long Count position is clearly 9.10.2.6.6, and the Calendar Round is followed by 'birth' at P13. On the basis of the Tablet of the Foliated Cross reference and its parallelism with the birth/accession clause of Lord Shield Pacal and with birth/accession clauses of later rulers, we accept 9.10.2.6.6 2 Cimi 19 Zotz' as the date of birth of Lord Chan-Bahlum.
