K'inich K'an Joy Chitam II
644 CE · Palenque
K'inich K'an Joy Chitam II, a second son of Pakal the Great, succeeded his brother on the throne of Palenque in 702. In 711 he was captured by the rival kingdom of Toniná, a humbling defeat recorded on that city's monuments, though he appears to have survived and reigned on afterward. His time on the throne saw continued patronage of Palenque's celebrated sculptural tradition despite the setback.
