Icnoxochitl (TV4r)
This black-line drawing of the compound glyph for the personal name Icnoxochitl (“Humble Flower,” attested here as a man’s name) shows an upright flower {xochitl) with a teary eye below it (suggesting humility or sadness, icno-). The flower is a rounded tripartite shape. The eye is a leaf shape in a European style. The tears coming down from the eye are two short streams of water, one ending in a turbinate shell and one ending in a droplet or bead. Each streaming tear has a line of current in the middle (showing movement).
