Calmimilolcatl (MH686v)
Simplex Glyph

Glyph or Iconographic Image Description: 

This black-line drawing of the simplex glyph for the personal name or ethnicity Calmimilolcatl (“Person of Calmimilolco,” attested here as a man’s name) shows a calli (house, building) surrounded by a taller structure.

Stephanie Wood

Added Analysis: 

Seemingly, the surrounding structure provides a visual for the mimilolo (passive) verb. This structure somewhat resembles a glyph for Tlailotlac that is found in the same manuscript on folio 687 verso.
