Place value

As one base-20 digit, 19 belongs to the 0 to 19 set. For numbers above 19, Maya numerals can stack vertically with the ones place at the bottom and higher places above it.

How to read it

The Maya number 19 is written with three bars and four dots. The bars count fifteen and the dots add four, so the mark totals 19.

In context

Nineteen is the highest value that fits in one ordinary vigesimal place. The next count, 20, begins a higher place, so stacked notation becomes necessary for compact writing.

Source note

The representation follows the Unicode Mayan Numerals block and the scholarly description of Maya positional notation.
