Palenque Tablet XIV

I had some free time, so decided to whip out an attempted translation. I'll provide a transliteration followed by a translation.

Palenque Tablet XIV
Left panel:
9 Ik’ 10 Mol uti ch’am k’ahwil u ahau 9 pik tu chaak naah chopaat way k’ahwil. U ch’am 9 yook utiy sak nal ??? I patlaj yax ch’am k’ahwil.

Right panel:
18 k’in 13 winal ??? tun 7 katun 4 baktun 18 piktun 5 kalabtun utiy 9 Ik 10 Mol u naab tal ch’am k’ahwil. 9Ahau 3 K’an K’in och u ch’een k’ak naab. Ye’nal’te G1/AL ??? wan xu k’akaj sak naah ??? jun ??? ahau. u k’hul chaak wayil. kinich k’an balam kuhul ahau lakam ha’.

On 9 Ik’ 10 Mol when she grasped k’ahwil, her lord being “many footed Chaak Naah Chopaat, Spirit K’ahwil. She grasped 9 Yook; it happened at White Corn Place(?) then was formed the "first harvest" of k’ahwil.

Count forward 18 days 13 winal ?? tun 7 katun 4 baktun 18 piktun 5 kalabtun and then it happens: on 9 Ik’ 10 Mol, when he first arrived, he grasped k’ahwil. On 9 Ahau 3 K’an K’in he enetered his cave, Fire Water Sea, accompanied by G1/AL and ???. This tablet was brought to you by Burning Bird at White House Place(?) First ??? Lady is his holy great spirit of K’inich K’an Balam, Holy Lord of Palenque

My Translation of Altar Q, Copan

Altar Q, Copan, looks like a very large table. The top features a large inscription, followed by 16 of the 17 kings of Copan, surrounding it's side. The kings are depicted, sitting on their name glyphs. The lineage founder, Yax Kuk Mo, is shown, passing  on the K'awil scepter to the last recorded king on the altar, Yax Pasaj. Since there are 16 kings, there are 4 kings on each panel.  On the top of Altar Q, Copan, we get the following inscription: Image Source A1B1: 5 Kaban, 15 Sip A2B2: u-kan k'awil, Ch'ok te'na A3B3: ajaw k'uk-il, 8 ajaw A4B4: 18 Sip, ta-l(i) A5B5: Ch'ok te'na, Yax K'uk Mo.
