There's even a caracal glyph on one of the vessels in one of their burials.
But they try to put their mark on the city, and they remake the downtown.
And part of this is there are different models for how Maya rulers work.
And the older sort of outdated model is that each royal family has a glyph, each glyph is tied to one place.
And what we can see by mixing the archaeology and the glyphs and looking at trade networks and how things shift over time is that you can see multiple cities become part of the same state over time.
And this ruler, think of him as the figurehead.
There's still a whole governing apparatus that's handling the day-to-day affairs.
What we can see is that actually, corroborating with this date and after, you see new households being founded on the landscape, probably by people migrating in.
The population's growing too quickly to just be internal, unless they found magical corn or something.
So it suggests immigration into the city.
And then average household wealth is also going up.
So they're looting a little bit of the wealth out of Tikal, but they're also taking some of the people from Tikal and bringing them here.
Or rather, people from Tikal are choosing to migrate here.
They're following the power.
Right.
And then those families stay on this landscape all the way until the end.
Yeah, so it's kind of complicated.
But for Lord Water, there's this sort of 560 date that's really important.
He goes until 600.
And that seems to be doing pretty well for Carcol.
