Huitzne (MH627v)

This black-line drawing of the compound glyph for the personal name Huitzne is attested here as a man's name. The first part of the name, Huitz-, is covered by the thorn element (huitztli). This thorn is a triangle with the point upward. The upper half is black, and the lower half is white. Perhaps the dark color, which can be red in glyphs that are in color, represents blood, given that the thorn was an implement for ritual bloodletting. Underneath the thorn is a little head-like shape with two eyes and a nose. This is probably a nenetl (deity images, doll, or women's genetals), which can provide either a phonetic "-ne" or "-nen." The gloss reads -ne, but the meaning is obscure here.
