THE D
TABLET
Once again. October 27 (300) was evidently a place which in principle had been defined already in the Golden Age of the Bull. Since that ancient era the Sun calendar had (ideally) relied on this date. Although the fixed stars had advanced with *64 right ascensin days since then, due to the precession of the cardinal points of the Sun.
Day 236 (AUGUST 24) was where once upon a time the Sun had risen together with η Centauri (*220.4) located at the right elbow of the Centaur, because 236 + 64 = 300 (*220).
And it was certainly no coincidence that 236 = 8 * 29½. Also the Full Moon relied upon this important place. Furthermore the Maya astronomers had used 236 in order to integrate Venus in their cosmic structure:
This is glyph line Da1 according to the structure I once upon a time had perceived:
How can I be certain Da1-1 is not beginning at the stars located at AUGUST 24? Answer: because the rongorongo texts seem to always follow the stars when the tablet is turned around.
The stars are difficult to perceive in summer, which will explain why there are 364 - 212 = 152 (= 8 * 19) nights 'missing' from the D text. 8 * 29½ - 8 * 19 = 8 * 10½ = 84 (12 weeks) → Julian equinox in day 84 (March 25).
