200 days from a nakshatra position to a
heliacal position implies a difference of only about 200 - 183 =
17 days between the pair of heliacal positions (respectively
between the pair of nakshatra positions).
... There
were 200 days from the nakshatra Winnowing
Basket (i.e. when the arrow point γ Sagittarii
was at the Full Moon in June 19) to heliacal

Perhaps the distance 17 days once upon a time was chosen
to be a part of the basic structure in order to secure
a
place for the return to
visibility of a star after a close encounter with the Sun?
We should look also in the complementary direction,
viz. 17 days earlier than heliacal Alphekka Meridiana. *290

What was so good? 365 - 17 = 348 (= number of
glyphs on side b of the C tablet), and 348 = 12 * 29 = 6 * 58 = 377
- 29.
... The ordinary year in the previous Roman
calendar consisted of 12 months, for a total of 355 days. In
addition, a 27-day intercalary month, the Mensis Intercalaris,
was sometimes inserted between February and March. This
intercalary month was formed by inserting 22 days after the
first 23 or 24 days of February; the last five days of February,
which counted down toward the start of March, became the last
five days of Intercalaris. The net effect was to add 22 or 23
days to the year, forming an intercalary year of 377 or 378 days
...
378 = 366 - 17 + 29.
The shaman in the skin of the Leopard (cfr in
the Chinese hint for Nash) has 14 'stones' on his back side
club with a further few of them on the top of his head. His
front side instrument (to be struck by his 'stick')
could be the extended skin of a Bull (or similar, like an Ox or a Buffalo) forming the sounding
surface of his drum.
... The most
important of all drums, he said, was the armpit drum. The Nummo
made it. It consists of two hemispherical wooden cups connected
through their centres by a slender cylinder. It is like an
hour-glass with a very long narrow neck. With this instrument
tucked between his left arm and armpit, the drummer, by pressing
on the hollow structure of thin wood, can tighten or relax the
tension on the skins and so modify the tone.
'The Nummo
made it. He made a picture of it with his fingers, as children
do today in games with string.' Holding his hands apart, he
passed a thread ten times round each of the four fingers, but
not the thumb. He thus had forty loops on each hand, making
eighty threads in all, which, he pointed out, was also the
number of teeth of his jaws. The palms
of his hands represented the skins of the drum, and thus to play
on the drum was, symbolically, to play on the hands of the
Nummo. But what do they represent? Cupping his two hands behind
his ears, Ogotemmźli explained that the spirit had no external
ears but only auditory holes. 'His hands serve for ears,' he
said; 'to enable him to hear he always holds them on each side
of his head. To tap the drum is to tap the Nummo's palms, to
tap, that is, his ears.' Holding before him the web of threads
which represented a weft, the Spirit with his tongue interlaced
them with a kind of endless chain made of a thin strip of
copper. He coiled this in a spiral of eighty turns, and
throughout the process he spoke as he had done when teaching the
art of weaving. But what he said was new. It was the third Word,
which he was revealing to men ...

... Resh (Arabic:
rāۥ)
is the twentieth letter of many Semitic alphabets,
including Phoenician, Aramaic, Hebrew ... The word
resh is usually assumed to have come from a
pictogram of a head, ultimately reflecting Proto-Semitic
*raۥ(i)-.
The word's East Semitic cognate, rē-, was one
possible phonetic reading of the Sumerian cuneiform sign
for 'head' (SAG).

... Then I
become aware of ... a presence - a faint, ghostly
glimmering, like moonglow, that has appeared on the
solstice stone. I don't know how long it lasts, a second
or two only I would guess, but while it is there it
seems less like a projection - which I know it to be -
than something immanent within the stone itself. And it
seems to function as a herald for it fades almost as
soon as it has appeared and in its place the full effect
snaps on - instantaneously. It wasn't there, and then
it's there. As Chris had described, the effect does
curiously resemble a poleaxe, or a flag on a pole, and
consists of a 'shaft', narrow at the base but widening a
little towards the top, running up the left hand side of
the solstice stone, surmounted by a right-facing 'head'
or 'flag'. An instant later an almond-shaped spot of
light, like an eye, appears a few centimeters to the
right of the 'flag' and the effect is complete. Weirdly
- I do not claim it has any significance - this
flag-on-a-pole symbol is the ancient Egyptian hieroglyph
neter, meaning 'god', or 'a god' - and not to be
understood at all in the Judaeo-Christian usage of that
word but rather as a reference to one of the
supernatural powers or principles that guide and balance
the universe. Manifested here, in this strange Stone Age
temple, it glows, as though lit by inner fire

upon a spear's point and forthwith // Throughout the

lead, and many valiant men // Resorted to him; he
rebelled and went |

When he arrived shouts rose. // He entered the new
prince's court, who marked |

The apron
on the spear and hailed the omen. // He decked the apron
with brocade of Rūm |

Of jewelled
patterns on a golden ground, // Placed on the spear
point a full moon - a token |
|
Portending
gloriously - and having draped it // With yellow, red,
and violet, he named it |
|
The Kawian
flag. Thenceforth when any Shah // Ascended to the
throne, and donned the crown, |
|
He hung the
worthless apron of the smith // With still more jewels,
sumptuous brocade, |
|
And painted
silk of Chin. It thus fell out // That Kawa's standard
grew to be a sun |

Amid the
gloom of night, and cheered all hearts ... |
