Events

615 – Pakal ascends the throne of Palenque at the age of 12.

According to the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar article, in the Correlations between Western calendars and the Long Count section, it says that the generally accepted correlation constant is the Modified Thompson 2, "Goodman–Martinez–Thompson", or GMT correlation of 584,283 days. That means the date of Pakal's ascension should be July 27, not July 29. The July 29 date is using the Thompson/Lounsbury (584,285) JDN correlation.

In my humble opinion, the entry should be moved to July 27 so that Wikipedia remains constant throughout the different articles. Chuck Coker (talk) 20:14, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
