Metoro used the word hokohuki at Aa1-46. We need not understand its meaning. It is enough to use it as a cue for looking at the other two glyphs where he also used this word:
Once again working with numbers we will at Aa1-29 think of the dark night of the month. From that we realize that Aa1-23 similarly is one more than 22 (alluding to π). 29 is one more than the 28 moonlit nights in a month and 23 is one more than a cycle which probably has to do with the sun (and which Homeros may have used for hinting that the blinding of Polyfemos was an event at midsummer). From this we can hesitantly conclude that 46 also belongs in the same category - a 'black' number which is one more than a 'light' number (here = 45). |
