35 Glyph for lak’in, “east.”

36 Kelley’s reading of K’ak’upakal at Chichén Itzá. These are variant spellings based upon the Maya phonetic syllabary.

Notwithstanding Thompson’s disapproval of somebody he liked to believe was on the lunatic fringe, Kelley persisted in his determination to put phoneticism on a firm basis: underneath all of that Irish mischievousness there is a rockbed of good sense. When Dave’s massive Deciphering the Maya Script appeared in 1976,15 a year after Thompson’s death, even the most loyal Thompsonians were faced with irrefutable evidence that Knorosov had been right and Eric very, very wrong.
