Georges,

can you give us a reference for your statement that
the The Ukahlay Katunob, or Shirt Count starts on
katun 2 Ahau and ends on katun 4 Ahau, please?

I ask because Maud Makemson, who translated the Chilam
Balam of Tizimin, said it starts on katun 11 Ahau and
ends on katun 13 Ahau....Sharer, on the other hand,
says it was counted from katun 8 Ahau (Sharer, The
Ancient Maya, 5th edn p.573)
