+David Kelley was able to show that names of Maya rulers occur in the inscriptions and in colonial
+sources from the 16th century.
+On several inscriptions in the temple of Chich\'{e}n Itz\'{a}, Herman Beyer (\cite{beyer1937}) 
+found several similar sign collocations.
+David Kelley could proof that these sequences of signs actually represent a
+name of a Maya ruler (\cite{kelley1962a}). 
+With the help of Landa's abecedary (\Cref{fig:terminology-landa-relacion-folio-45r}) and 
+Yuri Knorozov decipherments (\cite{knorozov1967}) David Kelley found that these sign collocations 
+denote the name of the Maya ruler \mayan{K\glottalstop{}ak\glottalstop{}upakal} 
+(\cite[304-5]{kelley1962c}).
+When he cross-referenced this name (\cite[\ppno~259--266]{kelley1968}) with the book of 
+Chilam Balam of Chumayel 
+--- one of several books from the colonial time written in Yucatec Maya and Latin letters ---
+he discovered that on page 43r a person of high rank named \mayan{Kakupakal} is mentioned 
+(\Cref{fig:terminology-chilam-balam-kakupakal}),
