Ba9.9
The B text was probably designed to begin 4 days before Rigel
- the star at the left Foot of Orion above the head of the Hare - had
become visible close to the Full Moon in
December 7.
Perhaps this date had been conceived from (10 *
7) / 365.25 * 26000 = AD 1842 + 3140 BC, considering the Mayan view
that Itzam-Yeh (Ursa Major) had been defeated 9 years
earlier in 3149 BC.
However, a less complicated explanation would be to regard 10-7 as an allusion to 107 (→
16 * 29½ - 365), i.e. as a measure for the difference between the
length of the Moon cycle and that of the Sun cycle.

And then another view of the year seems to have been presented 348 (= 12
* 29 = *365 + *56 - *73) days (glyph positions) later in
the text, where
Alcyone in the Pleiades would have been rising together with the Sun.
...
in the South Island and certain parts of the
North Island of New Zealand and in the neighboring
Chatham Islands, the year began with the new Moon after
the yearly morning rising, not of the Pleiades, but of
the star Rigel in Orion
...
On side b of the C tablet there are 348 glyphs, which we
can
compare with 365 + 56 (Alcyone) = 421
= 348 + 73 (→ 365 /
5) number of glyphs on side a of the B
tablet.
... As soon as one has mastered the
elementary grammar and accidence of myth, and built up a
small vocabulary, and learned to distinguish seasonal
myths from historical and iconotropic myths, one is
surprised how close to the surface lie the explanations,
lost since pre-Homeric times, of legends that are still
religiously conserved as part of our European cultural
inheritance. For example, the various legends of the
halcyon, or kingfisher which like the wren, is
associated in Greek myth with the winter solstice. There
were fourteen 'halcyon days' in every year, seven of
which fell before the winter solstice, seven after,
peaceful days when the sea was smooth as a pond and the
hen-halcyon built a floating nest and hatched out her
young. According to Plutarch and Aelian, she had another
habit, of carrying her dead mate on her back over the
sea and mourning him with a peculiarly plaintive cry.
The number fourteen is a moon-number,
the days of the lucky first half of the month; so the
legend (which has no foundation in natural history,
because the halcyon does not build a nest at all but
lays its eggs in holes by the waterside) evidently
refers to the birth of the new sacred king, at the
winter solstice - after his mother, the Moon-goddess,
has conveyed the old king's corpse to a sepulchral
island. Naturally, the winter
solstice does not always coincide with the same phase of
the moon, so 'every year' must be understood as 'every
Great Year', at the close of which solar and lunar time
were roughly syncronized and the sacred king's term
ended ...
Pliny, who carefully describes the
halcyon's alleged nest - apparently the zoöphyte called
halcyoneum by Linnaeus - reports that the halcyon
is rarely seen and then only at the winter and summer
solstices and at the setting of the Pleiades. This
proves her to have originally been a manifestation of
the Moon-goddess who was worshipped at the two solstices
as the Goddess of alternatively Life-in-Death and
Death-in-Life - and who early in November, when the
Pleiades set, sent the sacred king his summons to death
...

... 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 ... |

In other words, the ancient Druidic
religion based on the oak-cult will be
swept away by Christianity and the door
- the god Llyr - will languish forgotten
in the Castle of Arianrhod, the
Corona Borealis [below the upside
down right foot of Hercules]. This helps us to
understand the relationship at Rome of
Janus and the White Goddess Cardea who
is ... the Goddess of Hinges who came to
Rome from Alba Longa. She was the hinge
on which the year swung - the ancient
Latin, not the Etruscan year - and her
importance as such is recorded in the
Latin adjective cardinalis - as
we say in English 'of cardinal
importance - which was also applied to
the four main winds; for winds were
considered as under the sole direction
of the Great Goddess until Classical
times ... |

... needfire ceremonies
usually take place near the summer solstice (the
Feast of St. John) ... but they occur in several
other seasons as well. The summer date of the
rite and its accompanying festival have to do,
among other things, with fertility, as can can
clearly be seen in a variant from the valley of
the Moselle preserved for us by Jakob Grimm.
Each household in the village was constrained to
contribute a shock of straw to the nearby high
place, Stromberg, where the males went at
evening while the females went to a spring lower
down on the slope. A huge wheel was wrapped with
this straw. An axle run through the wheel served
as the handles for those who were to guide it on
its downward plunge. The mayor of a nearby town
kindled the straw, for which office he was
rewarded with a basketful of cherries. All the
men kindled torches and some followed the
burning orb as it was released downhill to
shouts of joy. The women at the spring echoed
these shouts as the wheel rushed by them. Often
the fire went out of its own accord before it
reached the river, but should the waters of the
river extinguish it, an abundant vintage was
forecast for that year ...

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

6 days later (at Ba9-27 and MARCH 27) the place among the stars
corresponding to November 28 (332) would
be at the Full Moon.
... The correspondence
between the winter solstice and the kali'i
rite of the Makahiki is arrived at as
follows: ideally, the second ceremony of
'breaking the coconut', when the priests
assemble at the temple to spot the rising of the
Pleiades, coincides with the full moon (Hua
tapu) of the twelfth lunar month (Welehu). In
the latter eighteenth century, the Pleiades
appear at sunset on 18 November. Ten days later
(28 November), the Lono effigy sets off
on its circuit, which lasts twenty-three days,
thus bringing the god back for the climactic
battle with the king on 21 December, the
solstice (= Hawaiian 16 Makali'i). The
correspondence is 'ideal' and only rarely
achieved, since it depends on the coincidence of
the full moon and the crepuscular rising of the
Pleiades ...
This correspondence was 'ideal' (i.e. the
established picture), and a slight adjustment
with 4 days in my normal order could put the Club of Hercules at
28 November. Here (Ba9-17) Metoro said they were
looking (ui) at the sun (Tahitian: ra).
But this ought to be the day when the cycle of
Lono (Rogo) began, and we should therefore rather count
16 days earlier in the text in order to find the true
heliacal date. 328 (November 24) - 182 = 146

i.e. at Ba9-27. 338 (December 4) - 182 = 156 (June 5).

The manik, with the tzab,

across Madrid tz. 22 , the figures in
the pictures all holding the rattle; it
runs across the hunting scenes of Madrid
tz. 61, 62, and finally appears in all
four clauses of tz. 175, the so-called
'baptism' tzolkin. It seems impossible,
with all this, to avoid assigning the
value of grasping or receiving. But in
the final confirmation, we have the
direct evidence of the signs for East
and West. For the East we have the glyph
Ahau-Kin, the Lord Sun, the Lord
of Day; for the West we have
Manik-Kin, exactly corresponding to
the term Chikin, the biting or
eating of the Sun, seizing it in the
mouth.
The pictures (from
Gates) show east, north, west, and
south; respectively (the lower two
glyphs) 'Lord' (Ahau) and
'grasp' (Manik). Manik was
the 7th day sign of the 20 and Ahau
the last ... |

Haedus II (*74) ought to have been visible close to the Full Moon at
Ba1-1. Therefore the same situation ought to return
after 365 glyphs (days). However, I have suggested we
should turn around from Ba9-5 (cfr above) and instead
contemplate the possibility that the B text here instead
could refer to the stars of the rising Sun.
... Nut, whom the Greeks sometimes
identified with Rhea, was goddess of the sky, but it was
debatable if in historical times she was the object of a
genuine cult. She was Geb's twin sister and, it was
said, married him secretly and against the will of Ra.
Angered, Ra had the couple brutally separated by Shu and
afterwards decreed that Nut could not bear a child in
any given month of any year. Thoth, Plutarch tells us,
happily had pity on her. Playing draughts with the Moon,
he won in the course of several games a seventy-second
part of the Moon's light with which he composed five new
days. As these five intercalated days did not belong to
the official Egyptian calendar of three hundred and
sixty days, Nut was thus able to give birth successively
to five children: Osiris, Haroeris (Horus), Set, Isis
and Nepthys ...
Surely the pair of eating persons (tagata kai)
with a dead warrior (toa) hanging down
between them in APRIL 2 could have been intended to illustrate
3 days of cold food, in which case we here ought to read
the text in parallel with the positions of the Sun in the ancient days of the Golden Age of the Bull, when
Thuban had been the star at
the North Pole:

... Menkaure was allegedly a much more
benevolent Pharaoh than his predecessors.
According to legends related by Herodotus, he
wrote the following: This Prince (Mycerinus)
disapproved of the conduct of his father,
reopened the temples and allowed the people, who
were ground down to the lowest point of misery,
to return to their occupations and to resume the
practice of sacrifice. His justice in the
decision of causes was beyond that of all the
former kings. The Egyptians praise him in this
respect more highly than any other monarchs,
declaring that he not only gave his judgements
with fairness, but also, when anyone was
dissatisfied with his sentence, made
compensation to him out of his own purse and
thus pacified his anger. The Gods however
ordained that Egypt should suffer tyrannical
rulers for a hundred and fifty years according
to this legend. Herodotus goes on: An oracle
reached him from the town of Buto, which
said 'six years only shalt thou live upon this
earth, and in the seventh thou shalt end thy
days'. Mycerinus, indignant, sent an
angry message to the oracle, reproaching the god
with his injustice - 'My father and uncle,' he
said 'though they shut up the temples, took no
thought of the gods and destroyed multitudes of
men, nevertheless enjoyed a long life; I, who am
pious, am to die soon!' There came in reply a
second message from the oracle - 'for this very
reason is thy life brought so quickly to a close
- thou hast not done as it behoved thee. Egypt
was fated to suffer affliction one hundred and
fifty years - the two kings who preceded thee
upon the throne understood this - thou hast not
understood it'. Mycerinus, when this
answer reached him, perceiving that his doom was
fixed, had lamps prepared, which he lighted
every day at eventime, and feasted and enjoyed
himself unceasingly both day and night, moving
about in the marsh-country and the woods, and
visiting all the places he heard were agreeable
sojourns. His wish was to prove the oracle
false, by turning night into days and so living
twelve years in the space of six ... |

There were 5-6 days to the winter solstice, as
counted beyond 3 days of cold food.
... In China,
every year about the beginning of April, certain officials called
Sz'hüen used of old to go about the country armed with wooden
clappers. Their business was to summon the people and command them
to put out every fire. This was the beginning of the season called
Han-shih-tsieh, or
'eating of cold food'. For three days all household fires remained

took place on the fifth or sixth day after the winter solstice
[Sic!].
Anciently December
13 (Lucia) was regarded as the day of winter
solstice.

APRIL 11 (101 → Sirius)
- 12 ('years') = MARCH 31 at Haedus I (*73).
... His wish was to prove the oracle false, by
turning night into days and so living twelve years
in the space of six ...
