Yo'nal Ahk III - Ruler 5 - was a king of the Mayan city Piedras Negras, who ruled AD 758-767. His monuments are stelae 14 and 16.
He was a successor (and likely son) of Piedras Negras Ruler 4.
Stela 14, Yo'nal Ahk's accession monument, is considered to be the finest of the "niche" stela type.
His successor was Ha' K'in Xook, who was maybe his brother.
