Summary

| Description |
This is a reconstruction of the disk which makes it easier to make out the details. This disk served as the tombstone for a circular crypt found in 1993. It is from an earlier temple nicknamed “Motmot” beneath the Hieroglyphic Stairway. Cemented into the stucco floor, it has been referred to as the cornerstone for the ancient city of Copán. It has the earliest hieroglyphic inscription know from the site, commemorating the important 9.0.0.0.0 period ending and the final closing of the tomb beneath. Two seated rulers occupy opposite halves, which symbolizes the open door to the underworld. The ruler on the left is the first ruler in the dynasty, K’inich Yax K’uk’’ Mo’. The ruler on the right is the first ruler’s child, the second in the dynastic succession. |
