Other dates are associated with Lord Shield Pacal (table 1). Since it is our purpose in this paper to identify only the birth, accession and death records of each ruler where possible, we shall proceed to the death of Lord Shield Pacal, which occurs three times in the Palenque inscriptions (figure 8). The first and most significant of the death texts is on Tablet 3 of the Temple of the Inscriptions (figure 9) where (T5-T12) 9.12.11.5.18 6 Etz'nab 11 Yax is followed by 'Lord Shield' and then by a Distance Number which, subtracted from 6 Etz'nab 11 Yax, leads back to 9.9.8.13.0 8 Ahau 13 Pop, the birth of Lord Shield Pacal.
