222.11 Once again. I suggest we perhaps can put in parallel the glyphs on the D tablet with the Gregorian calendar days in the following way:
Line Da8 would then be translated into:
From here we should now continue this investigation by looking at the positions for the hakaariki glyphs in the C and G texts in order to see if there are any parallels wíth the above figures depicted at Da8-3. There are 3 glyphs of this type in the C text:
But since there is only 1 such in the G text we should begin with that one:
The place is where in the Golden Age of the Bull the stars in Auriga and those in Orion were ruling in spring.
They were not standing still, these kingmakers in Gb5-24, instead they were intently pushing ahead.
The date APRIL 2 (Gb5-24) seems promising, because 365 + 92 (April 2) = 457 = 57 (February 26, Da8-3) + 400. ... The Sacred Book of the ancient Maya Quiche, the famous Popol Vuh (the Book of Counsel) tells of Zipacna, son of Vucub-Caquix (= Seven Arata). He sees 400 youths dragging a huge log that they want as a ridgepole for their house. Zipacna alone carries the tree without effort to the spot where a hole has been dug for the post to support the ridgepole. The youths, jealous and afraid, try to kill Zipacna by crushing him in the hole, but he escapes and brings down the house on their heads. They are removed to the sky, in a 'group', and the Pleiades are called after them ... Alcyone in the Pleiades ought to be the first star at the beginning - i.e. after the Leader Hamal in Aries - and in the illustration above we can see a great 8-pointed star up ahead, presumably indicating those well known 8 dark nights before Venus would return as Morning Star.
92 (April 2) + 8 = 100 (April 10) - which happens to be today! Although AD 2024 is a leap year, which means April 10 will be day number 101 (→ *101 for Sirius). 365 + 101 = 466.
There was no comments as to the 6 days to be counted below the sun god, inside the object upon which he was resting (i.e. his 'sleeping mat'). According to my assumed era for rongorongo the place of Alcyone (the Queen of Sailing) was in May 16 (136, *56), unless it was a leap year in which case Alcyone would rise with the Sun in day 137 (May 16) = 457 - 320. → Dramasa, the South Pole star, was not placed at November 16 (320) - i.e. not at the last glyph in line Da1 - but at *320 which was day 400 (February 4) → Da6-14 (101) → 14 * 6 (cfr 146 for May 26 at the last glyph of the D text) = 6 * 14 = 84 → Julian equinox. 146 - 101 = 45 = 360 / 8.
... For the form and concept of the City of God conceived as a 'mesochosm' (an earthly imitation of the celestial order of the macrocosm) which emerged on the threshold of history circa 3200 BC, at precisely that geographical point where the rivers of Tigris and Euphrates reach the Persian Gulf, was disseminated eastward and westward along the ways already blazed by the earlier neolithic. The wonderful life-organizing assemblage of ideas and principles - including those of kingship, writing, mathematics, and calendrical astronomy - reached the Nile, circa 2800 BC; it spread to Crete on the one hand, and on the other, to the valley of the Indus, circa 2600 BC; to Shang China, circa 1600 BC; and, according to at least one high authority, Dr Robert Heine-Geldern, from China across the Pacific, during the prosperous seafaring period of the late Chou Dynasty, between the seventh and fourth centuries BC, to Peru and Middle America ...
