Simplex Glyph

Glyph or Iconographic Image Description:

This black-line drawing of the simplex glyph for the personal name or ethnicity Calmimilolcatl (“Person of Calmimilolco,” attested here as a man’s name) shows a calli (house, building) enclosed in a taller structure.

Description, Credit:

Stephanie Wood

Added Analysis:

Seemingly, the surrounding structure provides a visual for the mimilolo passive verb. This structure somewhat resembles a glyph for Tlailotlac that is found in the same manuscript on folio 687 verso.
