Tlalicuilol (MH551r)

This black-line drawing of the compound glyph for the personal name Tlalicuilol (“Land-Written?” attested here as a man’s name) shows a bird's eye view of a rectangular land parcel with an unusual amount of decoration, including a frame around it that contains small circles, reminiscent of the circles with dots in them on the glyph for the name Tlaltzon, circles that decorate a ruler's palace (tecpan) or the droplets or beads that splash off of streams of water. Inside the rectangle are many dots, seemingly suggesting cultivation. Above the rectangle is a human hand in profile holding what may be a writing implement or a digging stick. The implement goes from the hand down to the land.
