Biography
In AD 735 Ucha'an K'in B'alam - the fourth king of Dos Pilas kingdom - attacked Seibal, capturing Yich'aak B'alam.[1] The captive king was not executed but rather became a vassal of his more powerful neighbour.[2] Yich'aak B'alam is shown under the feet of Ucha'an K'in B'alam on Aguateca Stela 2.[3]
Yich'aak B'alam continued as a vassal under the next king of Dos Pilas, K'awiil Chan K'inich, who presided over rituals at Seibal in 745 and 747.[4]
