136. A hundred days after the death of the kings Hunyg and Lahuh
Noh, there were elected as kings Cahi Ymox and Belehe Qat, on the
day 1 Can. For Belehe Qat alone remained. As for us we were little
boys and our elders did not choose any of us. Tzian and Balam, the
only other descendants of Hunyg, were also young. Belehe Qat was
therefore chosen to rule but only as heir apparent, the orator
Baqahol declaring that it was not proper that he should take the
supreme rule. The honor of the royalty was decreed to Belehe Qat;
but the orator Baqahol desired that the real chief should be our
ancestor Tzian; therefore he entered into power.
