Editing Ahkal Moʼ Nahb I (section)

== Family ==
Ahkal Moʼ Nahb I is the earliest recorded ruler of Palenque whose exact dates of birth, accession and death have been verified. He was possibly the younger brother of his immediate predecessor, [[Bʼutz Aj Sak Chiik]].<ref name=Skidmore1 /> For unknown reasons Ahkal Moʼ Nahbʼ is mentioned several times in official narratives left by [[Pacal the Great]], who ruled Palenque a century later. It is believed Pacal considered Ahkal Moʼ Naabʼ I a particularly important historical figure or his ancestor.<ref name=Skidmore2>{{cite book|last1=Skidmore|first1=Joel|title=The Rulers of Palenque|date=2010|publisher=Mesoweb Publications|page=24|edition=Fifth|url=http://www.mesoweb.com/palenque/resources/rulers/PalenqueRulers-05.pdf|accessdate=12 October 2015}}</ref>
