In Yauhtemoc (MH619v)
This black-line drawing of the simplex glyph for the personal name In Yauhtemoc (perhaps "He Who Went Descending") is attested here as a man's name. The glyph shows simply a human leg in profile, facing toward the viewer's right. The implication is that a person is or was going (yauh). The descent is not shown visually.
