Motlahueli (MH504v)
This simplex glyph for the personal name Motlahueli ("Angered," attested here as a man's name), shows what may be an open mouth (possibly human, possibly animal) with sharp teeth. The chin has some undeciphered stripes. The whole glyph has an S-shape--perhaps meant to make the reader think of a serpent--with what may be an animal-like nose at the top.
