... When this tremendous task had been accomplished Atea took a third husband, Fa'a-hotu, Make Fruitful. Then occurred a curious event. Whether Atea had wearied of bringing forth offspring we are not told, but certain it is that Atea and her husband Fa'a-hotu exchanged sexes. Then the [male] eyes of Atea glanced down at those of his wife Hotu and they begat Ru. It was this Ru who explored the whole earth and divided it into north, south, east, and west ...

Sirius was south of the equator (in the salty waters of the sea, i.e. 'female') and here the north pole was out of sight.

... On the day when Tîstar produced the rain, when its seas arose therefrom, the whole place, half taken up by water, was converted into seven portions; this portion, as much as one-half, is the middle, and six portions are around; those six portions are together as much as Khvanîras ... I suggest that what they meant was this shape:

The six 'flames' equals the middle hexagon in area, which implies that the 'middle' is 'one-half'. Moreover, I suggest that the middle hexagon is a region of 'water', whereas the six triangular forms represent 'land' (with the triangles illustrating mountains). Consequently the earth should have an equal area of sea and land. This ancient idea still governed the travels of Captain Cook. So much sea had been discovered that there must be a continent somewhere in the south ...

Therefore the south pole star Dramasa (*320) ought to be used to mark the new seat of power.

The Dogon people indicated both Sirius and Women (→ Virgins, Adara, ε Canis Majoris, 1 week before Aludra, the Virgin, η Canis Majoris) by signs similar to the Egyptian X:

... In reference to your question, 'How do the natives of Easter Island obtain fire?' I [Mr. Croft] have to answer that they cannot tell. Their forefathers, like the ancient Romans, had their 'vestal' fires, preserved from ancient times; but the 'Vestal Virgins' of Easter Island were gray-headed and gray-bearded old heathen priests. It was a part of their duty, sacredly attended to, to guard the eternal fire, which was neutral, together with its guardians, in all wars. From this sacred fire the whole community - at one time a large one - could obtain that useful 'element' from time to time, as they needed it, for culinary and other purposes. This custom is still kept up by a portion of the community, while another portion rely on the matches of Mr. Dutrou-Bornier for their supply ...

The circular sign in the middle of the Dogon version of the Primordial Cosmic Egg (Amma → Amaterasu), corresponded to its 'Yolk' (Emma ya), which presumably should be perceived as yellow, and its 'satellite' (F above) could then represent its nightside reflection in white (→ Snow-white) on the face of the Moon.

In ancient times, a tou was someone who had recovered from an epidemic, but whose illness meant that someone else in the family had to die. The tou were regarded as portents of evil. Toutou, lush; fertile (land). Toûa: Egg yolk; the colour yellow; soft, fibrous part of tree bark; toûa mahute, mahute fibres. Vanaga.

It strikes me that in Nordic mythology the male tree named Ash (Ask) was the counterpart of a female named Embla, which sounds like the Dogon name for their cosmic yolk, viz. Emma ya. The yellow Sun was female according to Nordic mythology. Moreover, both the Oak (→ Jupiter) and the Ash (→ Mercury) were characterized by very hard wood (→ Drus) and by their tendency to 'court the lightning flash'.

The pair of Dogon places named Pô Tolo ought to correspond to the north and south celestial poles.

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 extinct as a preparation for the solemn renewal of the fire, which took place on the fifth or sixth day after the winter solstice [Sic!] ... ... Once upon a time there was an old woman who owned a great potato field where she planted her potatoes in spring and harvested them in autumn. She was famous all around for her many varieties of wonderful potatoes, and she had enough of them to sell at the market place. She planted her potatoes 7 in a row, placing her foot in front of her as a measure from one potato to the next. Then she marked the place with a bean - which would also give nourishment to the surrounding potatoes. Next she changed variety and planted 7 more followed by another bean, and this was the pattern she followed until all her 214 varieties had been put down in their proper places. She had drawn a map which she followed and from where each sort of potato could be located at the proper time for its harvest. I was fascinated, when I happened to stumble on this Swedish TV program, because my 'once upon a time' was now and 214 (= 2 * 107) was surely no coincidence. She knew what she was doing. Let's therefore count: 214 * 7 (potatoes) + 213 (beans) = 1711. So what? Probably because 1711 = 59 * 29 ... ... Early on Sunday morning, 14 February 1779, Captain Cook went ashore with a party of marines to take the Hawaiian king, Kalaniopu'u, hostage against the return of the Discovery's cutter, stolen the night before in a bold maneuver - of which, however, the amiable old ruler was innocent. At the decisive moment, Cook and Kalaniopu'u, the God and the King, will confront each other as cosmic adversaries. Permit me thus an anthropological reading of the historical texts. For in all the confused Tolstoian narratives of the affray - among which the judicious Beaglehole refuses to choose - the one recurrent certainty is a dramatic structure with the properties of a ritual transformation. During the passage inland to find the king, thence seaward with his royal hostage, Cook is metamorphosed from a being of veneration to an object of hostility. When he came ashore, the common people as usual dispersed before him and prostrated face to earth; but in the end he was himself precipitated face down in the water by a chief's weapon, an iron trade dagger, to be rushed upon by a mob exulting over him, and seeming to add to their own honors by the part they could claim in his death: 'snatching the daggers from each other', reads Mr. Burney's account, 'out of eagerness to have their share in killing him'. In the final ritual inversion, Cook's body would be offered in sacrifice by the Hawaiian King ... ... The Hawaiian woman who was interviewed chuckled because the assassination of Captain Cook coincided with the day we have named All Hearts' Day - when in February 14 (2-14) the war-god Kuu returned to power ...

It was the Southern Head of the Lion (ε Leonis) which could be seen close to the Full Moon when the Sun was at the place of the Son (κ Pegasi).

When the Northern Head of the Lion (μ Leonis) was at the Full Moon the Sun was at the star Weeping (μ Capricorni).

Wikipedia points at the Egyptian gesture with arms held high as a Sign of jubilation, which may have been the origin (via Phoenician he) of epsilon.

... Behind me, towering almost 100 feet into the air, was a perfect ziggurat, the Temple of Kukulkan. Its four stairways had 91 steps each. Taken together with the top platform, which counted as a further step, the total was 365. This gave the number of complete days in a solar year. In addition, the geometric design and orientation of the ancient structure had been calibrated with Swiss-watch precision to achieve an objective as dramatic as it was esoteric: on the spring and autumn equinoxes, regular as clockwork, triangular patterns of light and shadow combined to create the illusion of a giant serpent undulating on the northern staircase ...
