With one day per glyph the curious measure 167 days could describe the time before sun leaves the island:
With two days per glyph a similar measure will be 168 days, the sum of 118 and 50:
168 = 2 * 84 = 6 * 28, which feels easier to accept than the odd figure 167. And 216 = 6 * 36 = 6 * 6 * 6, maybe alluding to the three 'feathers' of 'daylight' (i.e. with sun present). The new structure for K, with 2 days for each glyph, seems promising. It would indeed be strange with a calendar showing only half the year. |
