23rd Ruler

Ajaw of the Maya city of Tikal c. 635

23rd Ruler was an ajaw of the Maya city of Tikal. He ruled around the year 635. Information about this ajaw and his successor 24th Ruler are scarce.[why?] K'inich Muwaan Jol II is estimated to have been 23rd or 24th Ruler because he may have been the father of the 25th ajaw, Nuun Ujol Chaak.[1]
