This PDF file, "Reference to space in colonial Quiché":
http://home.snafu.de/duerr/PDF_Doku/Space.pdf

...has a reference to the cuatrillo and tresillo, uses a Greek lower case
"ε" (U+03B5) for tresillo and a "g" for cuatrillo.

"The spelling in these three editions is based on the conventions of
16th- and 17th-century Spanish. It is defective..."

"Special graphemes are used inconsistently for glottalized consonants..."

Words like "cuatrillo" are also used for musical notation in Spanish,
