Nauhacatl (MH653r)

This black-line drawing of the compound glyph for the personal name Nahuacatl or Nauhacatl (which can also be spelled "Nahui Acatl," "Four Reed" or "4-Reed") is attested here as a man's name. While Four Reed can be a year name in the xiuhpohualli (year-count calendar), this is a name that likely derives from the religious divinatory calendar called the tonalpohualli, which was a source for many personal names. Acatl is the a day name, and the companion number here is four (nahui)--not expressed as a notation, but built into the visual of four upright, segmented, parallel reeds.
