Piedras Negras Ruler A was a king of that Mayan city. He is also known as Wafflehouse.[1]
He reigned c. 460. It seems that he was captured.[2]
His name combines the distinctive knotted headdress of God N with that aged earth deity's turtle shell and k'an ("yellow/precious") marking; altogether it is probably read as itzamk'anahk.[3]
