Ohuatl (MH639v)
This black-line drawing of the simplex glyph for the personal name Ohuatl ("Green Maize Stalk," attested here as male) shows a streamlined maize stalk with two leaves. Unlike some other examples of ohuatl glyphs, this one is not bearing the tender, edible corn cobs ripening on the cane.
