Siyaj K'ak Translates to "Fire is Born" not Owl throws Lances. "Spearthrower Owl" (or however you want to arrange it) was the king over Fire Born. His name is translated from Atlatl Cauac. In other words, they were two different people. So, I wonder who it is. Fire Born, or Spearthrower Owl. Either way, it is a neat picture.
