[Aztlan] Waterlily Jaguar query

[Justin Kerr]

Dear Friends,
K1197 has been removed from the Maya vase database because too many people
wanted to use the image without reading the comment box. Two of the figures
on the vase, the water lily jaguar and chak are almost completely new, only
two of the glyphs of the 8 glyphs are still intact and there are other
spurious items in the scene. The figure of God A with staff has considerable
overpainting, but probably relates to what was originally there.
It is published in "the Maya Book of the Dead" by Robicsek and Hales, vessel
30, page 25.

Hi all,
That jaguar (with flowers and fish) is one of three figures that apear in
K1197. The other two characters are Chak and the death god. But I could
not retrieve it from the Maya Vase data base...

Saludos,
Alejandra García Quintanilla
