erstemann, Hofrat und Oberbibliothekar. It contains, besides the chromolithographs of the 74 plates, an introduction published at Leipzig, 1880, 4^o. [269-1] A Study of the Manuscript Troano, by Cyrus Thomas, pp. 7-15. [272-1] This method will be adopted throughout this paper where figures containing numerals are introduced. [273-1] In the representations of lines and columns of the codex Roman numbers are necessarily used to distinguish the class of numerals, yet in the text, as in this case, the Arabic numbers will be used as most convenient. [273-2] Strictly speaking, the interval between 11 Men and 13 Oc is fourteen days, but throughout this paper, by "_interval between_" two days, is to be understood the number of days to be counted _from_ one _to and including_ the other. The one counted from is always _excluded_ and the one reached or with which the interval terminates is always _included_. [273-3] Science, p. 459, April 11, 1884. [277-1] Throughout this paper when the words "figure" and "character" are used in reference to what appears in the codex, they are to be understood as follows: "figure" refers to the picture, as of a person, animal, or other object in the spaces; "character" refers to the hieroglyphics or written symbols. [278-1] Study of the Manuscript Troano, by Cyrus Thomas, Chapters II and VII. [278-2] Erlaeuterungen zur Mayahandschrift, p. 2. [280-1] Erlaeuterungen zur Mayahandschrift, p. 16. [280-2] Bureau of Eth., Third Ann. Rep., pp. 16 et seq. [282-1] Study of the Manuscript Troano, by Cyrus Thomas, pp. 15, 16. [282-2] Dechiffrement des ecritures calculiformes ou Mayas, par M. le C^te H. de Charency, Alencon, 1849; also, Melanges, pp. 185-195. [283-1] For an explanation of the principle upon which these day columns were formed, see "Notes on certain Maya and Mexican manuscripts," by Cyrus Thomas, published in the Third Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology. [290-1] The symbol for this day in Kingsborough resembles Lamat, but the photographic copy makes it Ix, as it should be. [290-2] Foerstemann, Erlaeuterungen zur Mayahandschrift, p. 42. [291-1] Erlaeuterungen zur Mayahandschrift, p. 36. [292-1] Erlaeuterungen zur Mayahandschrift, p. 60. [293-1] Erlaeuterungen zur Mayahandschrift, p. 56. [296-1] The bottom lines are selected because they are less injured in the codex than the top lines, which are in most cases entirely obliterated. [300-1] 3 day
