Maybe the creator of the B text here thought of Pythagoras (the Samoan) - because of his famous basic right angular triangle. On the opposite side of the 'coin' was Väinömöinen (Epimenides the Cretan who said that all Cretans were liars, alias the Mad Hatter).

263 + 25 = 288 (= 2 * 144 = 6 * 48).

... Väinömöinen, 'sage and truthful', conjurer of highest standing, is cast upon the shore of Pohjola, much as Odysseus lands on Skyra after his shipwreck. He is received hospitably by Louhi, the Mistress (also called the Whore) of Pohjola, who asks him to build for her the Sampo, without explanation. He tells her that only Ilmarinen, the primeval smith, can do it, so she sends Väinömöinen home on a ship to fetch him. Ilmarinen, who adresses his 'brother' and boon [good, maitaki] companion rather flippantly as a liar and vain chatterer, is not interested in the prospect, so Väinömöinen, ancient of days and wise among the wise, has recourse to an unworthy trick. He lures the smith with a story of a tall pine [hardly a 'pine', instead 'spruce', gran, as in the Swedish translation from the original Finnish text], which, he says, it growing

Near where Osmo's field is bordered. // On the crown the moon is shining. // In the boughs the Bear is resting.

Ilmarinen does not believe him; they both go there, to the edge of Osmo's field,

Then the smith his steps arrested, // In amazement at the pine-tree, // With the Great Bear in the branches, // And the moon upon its summit ...

... There was no water in the village. The lakes and rivers were dry. Raven and Crow, two young girls who were having their first menstrual courses, were told to go and draw water from the ocean. Finding the journey too long, Raven decided just to urinate into her basket-bucket. She decieved no one and was severly scolded. Crow returned much later but with drinking water. As a punishment, Raven was condemned never to find water in the summer; only in winter would she find something to drink. For that reason the Raven never drinks during the hot months; she speaks with a raucous voice because of her dry throat ...

... This day we should recall from the view on Hawaii, because 322 + 33 = 355 (December 21, solstice): ... in the ceremonial course of the coming year, the king is symbolically transposed toward the Lono pole of Hawaiian divinity ... It need only be noticed that the renewal of kingship at the climax of the Makahiki coincides with the rebirth of nature. For in the ideal ritual calendar, the kali'i battle follows the autumnal appearance of the Pleiades, by thirty-three days - thus precisely, in the late eighteenth century, 21 December, the winter solstice. The king returns to power with the sun. Whereas, over the next two days, Lono plays the part of the sacrifice. The Makahiki effigy is dismantled and hidden away in a rite watched over by the king's 'living god', Kahoali'i or 'The-Companion-of-the-King', the one who is also known as 'Death-is-Near' (Koke-na-make). Close kinsman of the king as his ceremonial double, Kahoali'i swallows the eye of the victim in ceremonies of human sacrifice ...
