Plate of Lady Ix Ahin K'uk' of Tikal3D Model
Ceramic plate or cache vessel with lid. Both the base and the lid consist of two identical bowls joined lip to lip, with flat bases and divergent walls. The lid bears a highly significant text, composed of a vertical band of five incised glyphs filled with hematite. The paraphrase of the text reads: “She performs sacrifice, Lady Ix Ahin K’uk’, to her deity Akan Yax Aj”. The vessel likely originates from the city of Tikal (Mutul) and belongs to the Early Classic period, dated to the mid-fifth century AD.
