has gloss | eng: "Fish-Fin" is a designation or nickname given by Mayanist epigraphers to a personage whose undeciphered name-glyph appears in the epigraphic record in association with the Emblem glyph of Bonampak, a pre-Columbian Maya civilization site in present-day Chiapas, Mexico. This individual, identified as a ruler of the Bonampak polity, is mentioned in the Maya inscriptions at Yaxchilan, another Maya site located some 30 km to the north of Bonampak. On the inscription from a lintel in the building known as Yaxchilan Structure 12, Fish Fin is named in association with "Knot-eye Jaguar", the ninth ruler in Yaxchilan's dynastic succession who reigned ca. 508–518 CE. There is some dispute as to whether the context of this association places Fish-Fin as either a received visitor, or as a captive of the Yaxchilan ruler. |
