From what has been said it is clear that beginning with Gb1-3 a regular solar year with 360 days stretches up to Ga5-10:
Probably honu in Gb1-3 and Gb6-26 stand at solstices - they have no legs, i.e. do not move. A gradual increase in height is seen during the 177 days from Gb1-3 up to and including Gb6-26. Gb1-3 has no head and evidently is located at Te Pei, beyond summer solstice. Gb6-26 should therefore be at winter solstice, at the other extreme - which must be very high. Maybe the peculiar sign in Gb1-3 where the head should have been alludes to waves. Water ought to be involved at this point of time. John the Baptist is located at midsummer. The Small Eyes (Matariki) also bring rain. The big 'eye' in Gb1-3 (and in Gb3-15) presumably is the same type of sign as in the double small 'eyes':
A hole (mata) inside a honu glyph probably means 'water'. Instead of light there is darkness brought by rain clouds, a 'deluge'. The year seems to begin anew from a state of total darkness. Let there be light, God said. |
