Exercise 9 from Michael Coe's book, Altar A from Piedras Negras. I'll jump straight into transliteration for simplicity's sake: AB: 7 Men 18 Kank'in, sih-yaj, Ruler 4, ch'ok.

A1: 4 Katun Lord A2: Itzanmaj Balam A3: the white serpent A4: Bakab of Yaxchilan B1:His image, arrived that year. C1: ???? D1: his flint and shield E1: he appeared, the k'awil.
