5. From the Tahitian Faa-iti (the Pleiades?) to the Tuamotuan Faa-iti there are ca 472 - 464 + 19 = 27 days:
27 is also the ordinal number of the very special glyph Ga1-26 (where 12 * 6 = 72). It is a Moon-day but its number in the line says 'Sun'. 27 is the cube of 3 and behind Moon and Sun we can therefore imagine Saturn (the dark ruler who can create fire). 27 = 216 / 8 = 108 / 4 = 540 / 20. If the Pleiades should culminate when it is midnight, then Alnilam will be in the same position about a month later. If we decide to connect the Tahitian Faa-iti with the Pleiades and the Tuamotuan Faa-iti with Alnilam, and then also to correlate them with the glyphs in G as I have suggested above, we have decided the position of a star ought to be fixed to the time when it is culminating when we are reading the G text. Maybe we will later on in the text find a change of the time of observation to sun-up. |
