One simple question as a new MPB user

Hi,everyone
I am a new MPB user. When I try to simulate the ctl files in examples, I have a problem.

When I am trying the tri-rods ctl file, I could not understand why the K wavevector in irreducible Brillouin zone is (vector3 -1/3, 1/3, 0). I chceked the book,"Molding the flow of light",it seems that the K point should be (vector3 1/3, 1/3,0), and I can not find out where I was wrong. Please help me!
Thanks a lot!
