23rd Ruler was an ajaw of the Maya city of Tikal. He ruled in around the year 635. Information about this ajaw and his successor 24th Ruler are scarce.[why?] K'inich Muwaan Jol II is estimated to have been 23rd or 24th Ruler because he could have been the father of the 25th ajaw Nuun Ujol Chaak.[1]
