Whereas there were 4 standing straight sky pillars
distributed at the corners of the
'Square Earth' this was not the case with the
4 curved 'pillars'
- instead they could have assembled as helpers for the
offspring (hua) part of the year, for the
p.m. (= south of the equator) Sun. They were drawn contracted and with
'fruits' in front.

Freeman describres the dualistic cosmology of
the Pythagorean school (-5th century), embodied
in a table of ten pairs of opposites. On one
side there was the limited, the odd, the one,
the right, the male, the good, motion, light,
square and straight. On the other side there was
the unlimited, the even, the many, the left, the
female, the bad, rest, darkness, oblong and
curved ...

These curved 'sky proppers' could have
come together at the 5th corner of the pyramid,
where the top bird collected all beautiful colours:
The star name Mekbuda (ζ
Gemini) could allude to such a coming together ('contraction')
- a contraction of
the squares of the pyramid when time moved them
towards the
apex. And the name could
also refer to the contractions announcing births:
... When Hotu's canoe had
reached Taharoa, the vaginal fluid
(of Hotu's pregnant wife) appeared.
They sailed towards Hanga Hoonu,
where the mucus (kovare seems to
refer to the amniotic sac in this case)
appeared. They sailed on and came to
Rangi Meamea, where the amniotic
fluid ran out and the conctractions began.
They anchored the canoe in the front part of
the bay, in Hanga Rau. The
canoe of Ava Rei Pua also arrived and
anchoraged. After Hotu's canoe had
anchoraged, the child of Vakai and
Hotu appeared. It was Tuu Maheke,
son of Hotu, a boy. After the canoe
of Ava Rei Pua had also arrived and
anchoraged, the child of Ava Rei Pua
was born. It was a girl named Ava Rei Pua
Poki ...

...
When it was evident that the years lay ready to
burst into life, everyone took hold of them, so
that once more would start forth - once again -
another (period of) fifty-two years ...
Furthermore, south of the equator where
everything was upside down, the top of such a sky
pyramid should be at the south pole. Like in
ancient Egypt, which was south of the sea
in the middle, up (top) was in the south and
down (bottom) was in the north.
...
Men and birds joined forces to destroy the huge
watersnake, which dragged all living creatures
down to his lair. But the attackers took fright
and cried off, one after the other, offering as
their excuse that they could only fight on dry
land. Finally, the duckler (K.G.: a diver) was
brave enough to dive into the water; he
inflicted a fatal wound on the monster which was
at the bottom, coiled round the roots of an
enormous tree. Uttering terrible cries, the men
succeeded in bringing the snake out of the
water, where they killed it and removed its
skin. The duckler claimed the skin as the price
of its victory. The Indian chiefs said
ironically, 'By all means! Just take it away!'
'With pleasure', replied the duckler as it
signalled to the other birds. Together they
swooped down and, each one taking a piece of the
skin in its beak, flew off with it. The Indians
were annoyed and angry and, from then on, became
the enemies of birds. The birds retired to a
quiet spot in order to share the skin. They
agreed that each one should keep the part that
was in its own beak. The skin was made up of
marvelous colors - red, yellow, green, black,
and white - and had markings such as no one had
ever seen before. As soon as each bird was
provided with the part to which it was entitled,
the miracle happened: until that time all birds
had had dingy plumage, but now suddenly they
became white, yellow, and blue ... The parrots
were covered in green and red, and the macaws
with red, purple, and gilded feathers, such as
had never before been seen. The duckler, to
which all the credit was due, was left with the
head, which was black. But it said it was good
enough for an old bird
...
However,
for people living in the north this would have
been hard to imagine and instead the north pole
high above could easier be thought of as the destination of
all the spirits, with their following
reincarnation into the
living world through the roots of the world tree
down
in the south - by way of first forcing them to
follow the Milky Way downwards across the
equator and then up again trough its trunk.
Anyhow, at the
time of the Bull the creator of the fresh waters,
Sirius, would have stood ready at the dry Crater:
