K'okosom (gen. 4)

Allen J. Christenson (2007: 303n880) glosses the difficulty of interpreting the name of the leader of the fourth generation of the Ajaw K'iche' lineage. He points out, "The manuscript reads qo cozom. This is most likely K'o Q'osom (Lord Thicket/Bramble/Chaff) The precise meaning of this name is unclear, however, because of the limitations of the Latin alphabet used. Cozom may also be read as Kosom (Fatigued/Perplexed); K'osom (Reclined); or Qosom (Turkey Ruffling His Wings)." In contrast, K'iche' scholar Sam Colop (2008: 217n402) suggests "Lord Soaking" as the translation of K'okosom's name.

Según apunta el lingüista k'iche' Sam Colop (2008: 217n402), el nombre del líder de la cuarta generación del linaje Ajaw K'iche', K'okosom "probablemente quiere decir 'honorable mojado'". En cambio, el antropólogo Allen J. Christenson (2007: 303n880) interpreta el nombre como "señor de los matorreales" o "señor del chamo."
