The reason for 348 glyphs on side b
of the C tablet was perhaps partially
due to 364 - 16 = 348 (= 12 * 29):
|
413 = 14 * 29½
= 365 + 48 = 348

account. The

of Lau
consciously
follows the
legend of an
original
odyssey,
which
brought the
ancestral
holder of
the title
into power
at Lakeba,
ruling
island of
the Lau
Group. The
chief thus
makes his
appearance
at Lakeba
from the
sea, as a
stranger to

Disembarking
at the
capital
village of
Tubou,
he is led
first to the
chiefly
house (vale

and next day
to the
central
ceremonial
ground (raaraa)
of the
island. At
both stages
of this
progression,
the
pretender is
led along
a path of

by local
chieftains
of the land.

there were
48
constellations
in the
night:
...
According to
a variety of
sources of
the legend,
the Argo
was said to
have been
planned or
constructed
with the
help of
Athena.
According to
other
legends it
contained in
its prow a
magical
piece of
timber from
the sacred
forest of
Dodona,
which could
speak and
render
prophecies.
Argo
Navis is
the only one
of the 48
constellations
listed by
the 2nd
century
astronomer
Ptolemy
that is no
longer
officially
recognised
as a
constellation.
It was
unwieldy due
to its
enormous
size: were
it still
considered a
single
constellation,
it would be
the largest
of all. In
1752, the
French
astronomer
Nicolas
Louis de
Lacaille
subdivided
it into
Carina
(the keel,
or the hull,
of the
ship),
Puppis
(the poop
deck), and
Vela
(the sails).
When Argo
Navis
was split,
its Bayer
designations
were also
split.
Carina
has the
α,
β
and ε,
Vela
has γ
and δ,
Puppis
has ζ,
and so on.
The
constellation
Pyxis
(the
mariner's
compass)
occupies an
area which
in antiquity
was
considered
part of
Argo's
mast (called
Malus).
However,
Pyxis is
not now
considered
part of
Argo Navis,
and its
Bayer
designations
are separate
from those
of Carina,
Puppis
and Vela
...
48 + 2 = 50
= 364 - 314.
Ostriches
are
landlocked;
they cannot
fly nor do
they swim.
