Nim Li Punishes
Nim Li Punishes is a Maya site south of the Belize. In current Maya language, the name of the site Nim Li Punishes is the large hat .
There was an alliance between two sites: that of Nim Li Punishes and that of Balam. A name of a king of Nim Li Punishes is known for us: Lajun Caan - 10 ciels , which is also the name of the one of the 5 aspects of Venus. The Stele 1 watch the sovereign Lajun Caan carrying out a ritual: it makes a autosacrifice.
The Glyphe - Emblème of the site is generally the fish, but on stele 21 of Nim Li the glyphe-emblem Punishes is syllabiquement read syllabiquement kawam, term which would indicate according to the assumption selected, a bird, a raptor.
This site thus starts to have a history following the deciphering of its steles.
