| Description |
Here the ruler, Bird Jaguar, stands over a captive noble who, judging by the bended droplets on his nose and cheek, has already let blood. Eight days later when his heir, Shield Jabuar II, was born, Bird Jaguar and one of his other wives performad ritual bloodletting in celebration. Seventy-five days later, on 3 May AD 752, Bird Jaguar was officially installed as king, an event which took place only after the capture of noble prisoners and, in this case, the birth of a male heir. |
