6. I am inclined to believe I have identified the Castor glyph in the K text, although when investigating the G text I could not make an exact location.
The right ascension days suggest Ga2-19 for Castor and Ga2-22 for Pollux, but I think there are triplets of glyphs to consider, because evidently there could be a 5-day group defined by the fishes rising and descending:
In K the corresponding 5-group ends with a descending kahi fish, which probably means absence of light (because of the upside down internal 'bacab'):
Then follow 5 further glyphs with what could be Procyon in the central position:
To this rather complicated evidence I must add my conviction that the bird in Ka3-7 has an elbow ornament in form of a pure sign, probably intended to indicate the status of ghost. Castor died and a tiny dot at front in the glyph marks its importance. 'July 13 is a special date:
The distance from Aldebaran to Castor is known both counted from right ascensions and counted from culminations, and the measures are not exactly the same:
Thus we have here another possibility to investigate if the distances in the G text (and then presumably also in the K text) are defined by right ascension distances or from culmination distances:
Once again we can see the right ascension distance is a better choice. There are 45 days from Aldebaran to Castor. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
