Tenpol (MH770r)
This black-line drawing of the compound glyph for the personal name Tenpol is attested here as a man's name. It shows half a human face, drawing attention to the lip (tentli). Below the lower lip and protruding from it is an ornament (perhaps a tentetl or a tezatl) that is a turquoise-blue. It curves up slightly into a point at the front.
