On the same level as Stela III and several feet to the left is Stela II. Stela II features 2 women, the ruler’s mother and wife. I cannot recall feeling anything from this stela.
According to the INAH Plaque accompanying this stela, Stela II depicts the ruler Chaan Muan II with 2 women, his Mother to the front and his wife Lady Rabbit (sister of Yaxchilan’s ruler, Shield Jaguar II) behind him. The scene focuses on the ritual of self-sacrifice. Each person is holding objects used in such rituals, including a devilfish stinger and an inward folded cloth or paper platters for receiving the drops of blood which are later incinerated in honor of their Deities. Lady Rabbit’s presence indicates a marital alliance with Yaxchilan and mirrors the close ties between both ruling groups.
