We could even call the high summer season (44 days in the model) Poike. But Hanga Takaure and Hanga Hoonu cannot reasonably stretch for 68 days each. Instead, Hanga Takaure should have 2 glyphs and Hanga Hoonu 1 glyph (1 for the end of first half of the year and 2 for the end of the second half):
Here we can clearly see that also Gb3-1 is a takaure glyph. Shouldn't it be a honu glyph? The question is poignant and needs an answer. The lack of an answer mars the model. Instead of throwing the model away - the method of stringent western hard science - it should be studied further. The model is valuable because it is not just a guess, it is a structured guess. Consequences can be inferred, and if they are absurd then the model must be discarded. If they are not, the model will gain in credibility. The lack of an answer is no reason to throw away a model. Not even the best of theories can predict or explain everything. |
