6. Let us press on and see if we can find the stars 'on the back side'. We have established a fixed point from where to extrapolate:
|
3 |
|
7 |
|
32 |
Ga4-17 (*1) |
Ga4-21 (*5) |
Ga5-2 (*13) |
Beginning (?) |
Ana-roto (?) |
Arcturus ? |
45 |
|
183 |
|
Ga6-5 (*46) |
Gb4-9 (*230) |
Ana-mua (?) |
Ana-muri (?) |
185 |
Sirius is no Tahitian star pillar, but its importance should make it prominent among the glyphs of G. Earlier I have tried to put Sirius at day number 325 (as a result of defining Ana-muri to be at day 290 and Alphard at day 1):
12 |
Arcturus |
32 |
Ana-mua |
183 |
Ana-muri |
day 73 |
day 106 |
day 290 |
45 (= 5 * 9) |
185 (= 5 * 37) |
230 |
Alphard |
23 |
Ana-tipu |
34 |
Ana-roto |
day 1 |
day 25 |
day 60 |
24 (= 4 * 6) |
36 (= 6 * 6) |
60 |

Sirius |
13 |
Procyon |
26 |
day 325 |
day 339 |

75 (= 360 / 4) |
Moving backward in time from Rei in Ga4-17 we will enter the end of the previous cycle. If Ana-roto is at manu kake in Ga4-21, then Ana-tipu should be glyph number 105 - 35 = 70:
Ana-tipu (?) |
30 |
Beginning (?) |
3 |
Ana-roto (?) |
|
|
|
Ga3-10 (70) |
Ga4-17 (101) |
Ga4-21 (*5) |
3 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ga3-10 |
Ga3-11 |
Ga3-12 |
Ga3-13 |
Ga3-14 |
Ga3-15 |
Ga3-16 |
Here I have kept the colours as they are according to the ordinal numbers in the line (while I earlier tried to recolour by adding 3, corresponding to Ga2-27--29). Undeniably, though, a Rei glyph should be at the beginning:
|
|
|
Ga2-27 (*1) |
Ga2-28 |
Ga2-29 |
|
|
|
|
|
Ga3-1 (*4) |
Ga3-2 |
Ga3-3 |
Ga3-4 |
Ga3-5 |
At Vero it was commented on how in Ga3-10 there was no light, but that it had arrived in Ga3-20:
|
|
|
|
vero |
Ga3-10 (70) |
ragi |
Ga3-20 (80) |
Quite possibly Ga3-10 could correspond to the star Ana-tipu, a pivotal point with no light at the back side but with growing light in front.
To reach Alphard we must move 24 days further back in time, to glyph number 70 - 24 = 46:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ga2-13 |
Ga2-14 |
Ga2-15 (46) |
Ga2-16 |
Ga2-17 |
Ga2-18 |
Ga2-19 |
Alphard (?) |
At Moe was decided to colour line a2 according to the ordinal numbers from the beginning of the text instead of according to my normal procedure.
And at Mago a possible pattern involving Ga2-15 was noted:
|
248 |
|
|
248 |
|
Gb2-11 (267) |
Ga2-14 (*516) |
Ga2-15 (46) |
Gb3-4 (295) |
250 |
250 |
A thorough investigation at Haś has furthermore shown that Ga2-15--16 probably are 'in the sea', and - we know - the henua calendar has not yet arrived.
Alphard (?) |
23 |
Ana-tipu (?) |
30 |
Beginning (?) |
3 |
Ana-roto (?) |
|
|
|
|
Ga2-15 (46) |
Ga3-10 (70) |
Ga4-17 (101) |
Ga4-21 (*5) |
The resemblance with Ga6-9--10 and Ga6-15 should be noticed, and it could mean this type of glyph has to do with the residences of the Sun king:
22 |
|
|
|
|
Ga6-5 |
Ga6-6 |
Ga6-7 |
Ga6-8 (149) |
Ana-mua (?) |
23 |
|
|
|
Ga6-9 (*10) |
Ga6-10 |
Ga6-11 (152) |
24 |
|
|
|
|
|
Ga6-12 |
Ga6-13 |
Ga6-14 |
Ga6-15 |
Ga6-16 (157) |
25 |
|
|
Ga6-17 (*18) |
Ga6-18 (159) |
Perhaps Ga2-15 (and Alphard) is connected with Ahu Akapu (in period 25), the residence of the abdicated king..
Next we should search for Procyon, and its glyph should be 27 glyphs earlier than Ga2-15. 46 - 27 = 19:
|
|
|
Ga1-17 |
Ga1-18 (19) |
Ga1-19 |
Procyon (?) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ga1-20 |
Ga1-21 |
Ga1-22 |
Ga1-23 |
Ga1-24 |
Ga1-25 |
And finally, Sirius, should be at glyph number 19 - 14 = 5:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gb8-30 (1) |
Ga1-1 |
Ga1-2 |
Ga1-3 |
Ga1-4 (5) |
Ga1-5 |
Ga1-6 |
Sirius (?) |
It looks rather convincing with vaha mea (the red opening) as a sign for Sirius.
