72 Once again. The idea of an overturned boat,
inside which we were safely covered during the night (→
winter), implied we then should be outside in the healthy (ora)

Wehewehe. The explorers reach Easter Island in a 'canoe' (vaka).
The name of their craft is given as Oraorangaru 'saved
from the billows' (Brown 1924:40) or Te Oraora-miro 'the
living-wood' (ME:58). The Routledge reference 'Each (man went)
on a piece of wood' (RM:278) also seems to refer to the name of
the canoe. As far back as 1934, the name was no longer
understood. I favor the following explanation: The difficulty in
interpreting the name of the canoe of the explorers arises from
the name segment oraora. To begin with, the compound form
oraora ngaru should be analyzed in comparison with
other Polynesian compounds, such as MAO. pare-ngaru 'that
which fends off the waves' (i.e., the hull of the boat), TAH.
tere-'aru 'that which moves through the waves' (i.e., riding
the waves on a board). There are several possible translations
for oraora as the reduplication of ora. Te
Oraora Miro can be translated as 'the pieces of wood,
tightly lashed together' (compare TAH. oraora 'to set
close together, to fit parts of a canoe') and be taken to refer
to the method of construction of the explorer canoe, while
Oraora Ngaru means 'that which parts the water like a
wedge', or 'that which saves (one) from the waves, that which is
stronger than the waves'. (Barthel 2)

Significantly the symbol of Saturn is located, in the diagram

... The manner
of his death can be reconstructed from a variety of legends,
folk-customs and other religious survivals. At mid-summer, at
the end of a half-year reign, Hercules is made drunk with mead
and led into the middle of a circle of twelve stones arranged
around an oak, in front of which stands an altar-stone; the oak
has been lopped until it is
T-shaped ...
Water came at the beginning of the ecliptic cycle
and dry land was centered about 45 + 180 = 225 days later.

... The life-force of the earth is water. God
moulded the earth with water. Blood too he made out of water.
Even in a stone there is this force, for
there is moisture in everything. But if Nummo is water, it
also produces copper. When the sky is overcast, the sun's rays
may be seen materializing on the misty horizon. These rays,
excreted by the spirits, are of copper and are light. They are
water too, because they uphold the earth's moisture as it rises.
The Pair excrete light, because they are also light' ...

The text has been - I have suggested - designed to begin with a
Flood of water and
to end
where every trace of this water would have vanished. October 25 (295) -
April 20 (110) = 185 → 370 / 2
= 740 / 4.
The number of glyphs on the C
tablet is 740. And Aa8-85 suggests 2 * 350 + 185 = 14 * 50 +
370 / 2.
37 → 37(0) 'happens to be' the
number of days the Explorers
needed in order to go by boat from day 25 in the first month
- viz. of Vaitu Nui (Great Water) - in order to reach Easter
Island in the first day in the dry (Maro) month:
... On the twenty-fifth day [raa]
of the first month ('Vaitu Nui'), Ira and Makoi set sail; on
the first day [te raa po rae] of the month of June
('Maro'), the bow [te ihu] of Ira's canoe touched
land again ... [E:17]
June 1 (152) - 115 (April 25) = 37.
This odd (unlucky) number (37) had never stopped to worry me. But
now we can perceive that it was persumably the even number 370
which was
meant.
The same kind of reading could also have been intended
for the number of
the last page of the Dresden Codex:
