Estela 22
En esta estela se ve una figura humana sentada en una canoa, navegando sobre el plano acuático y atrayendo hacia sí a dos personas, una de cada lado. Encima del personaje hay un saurio sobre un cartucho. Por los atributos, estas personas están remando, llevando al personaje al otro lado del río de la vida, por lo que se interpreta como los remeros de la Vía Láctea.
