79 At Ca13-19 Metoro told Bishop Jaussen on Tahiti to count (hia). And we surely have found *360 and *290 together with 364 + 6 = 370 and 300 / 4 = 75 (= 370 - 295). And then it could also be discovered that Ca13-19 might allude to 1000 and one (nights):
The queen (Scheherazade) had been sentenced to death by the king, but she stayed alive by telling unfinished stories late at night for him, tales he just had to hear to their finishing lines, to their tails.
We can also count 13 * 20 = 260 in the following day, suggesting the Mayan tzolkin measure. And, more to the point, count 29 days (→ Ohiro) to heliacal Polaris at the end of side a of the tablet.
...Whiro 'Steals-off-and-hides'; also [in addition to the name of Mercury] the universal name for the 'dark of the Moon' or the first day of the lunar month; also the deity of sneak thieves and rascals ... ... Ha.: hilohilo, to lengthen a speech by mentioning little circumstances, to make nice oratorial language ... In which case we can guess 363 (→ 300 + 9 weeks) was intended to allude to Beltaine (May 1, 121, *41 → 41 Arietis, Bharani, *41.4, leading the asterism Musca Borealis), because 363 = 3 * 121.
