Kʼahkʼ Ujol Kʼinich I ("Fire-headed Sun God"[1]) was a king of Maya city of Caracol in Belize,[2] named after the Sun deity called Kinich Ahau. He is also known as Ruler I and Smoking Skull I. He reigned c. AD 470.[3]
His wife was probably Lady of Xultun and his son was likely king Yajaw Teʼ Kʼinich I.[4]
This ruler is named retrospectively in a sixth-century genealogy, but his exact position in the chronology of Caracol rulers is uncertain. His status as a revered ancestor is inferred from the fact that his name appears on a later monument as a belt ornament.[5] On Caracol Stela 6 Kʼahkʼ Ujol Kʼinich's descendant Knot Ajaw is depicted with the head of Kʼahkʼ Ujol Kʼinich.[6]
