Yuknoom Yich'aak K'ahk'

Yuknoom Yich'aak K'ahk'
Title	King of Kaan
Parent(s)	Yuknoom the Great?

Yuknoom Yich'aak K'ahk' /jʌkˈnoʊm jɪˈʒɑːk ˈkɑːk/) or Yuknoom Ixquiac ("Jaguar Paw Smoke"; born on October 6, 649) was a Maya king of the Kaan kingdom, which had its capital at Calakmul during the Classic Period of Mesoamerican chronology.

This king acceded in his thirty-sixth year, but there are indications that he may have effectively governed the kingdom for a substantial period before this on behalf of the previous king, Yuknoom the Great. The latter, who may have been Yuknoom Yich'aak K'ahk's father, lived well into his eighties and may have been incapacitated in his later years.

The inscription of Stela 9, from 662, goes into great detail about the birth of Yuknoom Yich'aak K'ahk' and accords him a full royal title; thus military victories in the following years, as well as successful assertions of Kaan's hegemony, might tentatively be ascribed to Yich'aak K'ahk'. These include military triumphs over Tikal in 677 and (quite probably) 679; supervision of the accessions of kings of Moral and Cancuen in 662 and 677 respectively; the dispatching of Lady Six Sky from Dos Pilas to re-seed the dynasty of Naranjo in 682, and a lieutenant's action expressive of Kaan overlordship at Piedras Negras in 685.
