In the G calendar it was possible to count glyphs in order to arrive at a hidden structure beneath the periods. Likewise, it is possible to count glyphs in the E calendar and thereby find out what structure will be revealed. 18 periods describe the central part of the E calendar. The 1st period is exceptional and outside the central part, which has 2 * 54 = 108 glyphs, a fascinating number.
42 (periods 5-10) is already understood as an important number ('the 7th flame of the sun'). 36 can be reconstructed as the number of glyphs in periods 2-4 plus those in periods 17-19. It means that 108 = 30 + 36 + 42. The regular year seems to be divided in 3 parts of different lengths, although one part (36) is divided unequally with ⅓ in late winter (before spring) and ⅔ in early winter (after autumn):
And then we have not yet considered the 1st and the last 5 periods (20-24). |
