Once again, the stars and dates which I have applied to the K text maybe should be changed:
The manzil day 192 at the vacant henua in Ka1-3 seems reasonable. 192 + 172 = 364 and, furthermore, Gregorian day 328 + 172 = 500 = 364 + 136, with the Pleiades:
To reach the number of days from southern spring equinox, in 'September 22 (185), it is necessary to reduce the Gregorian day numbers with 185, e.g. will 'December 1 (335) be the southern right ascension day 335 - 185 = 150.
Here it becomes interesting. I once gave up classifying the peculiar form in *Ka1-20 as a type of glyph. Perhaps it is the 15th glyph in the line rather than the 20th but I have not recoloured accordingly. It looks like the silhouette of a great Tree and in its shadows it should be black. The preceding glyph is an atariki ('King of Shadows') and with no stars. Nodus I (ζ Draconis) is at 260.0 which ought to have been the final day for Sun. Nodus II (δ Draconis) is far away in time at 291.5 and together this pair creates a very great Π portal of exit.
Possibly there is more than one great Tree in the sky, although the one which gives shadows maybe later will be transformed into the 'Axle-Tree'. ... the oak had made trouble right from the start. When (in the second rune of the Kalevala) Sämpsä Pellervöinen had sowed trees, it was the oak alone that would not grow until four or five lovely maidens from the water, and a hero from the ocean, had cleared the ground with fire and planted an acorn in the ashes; and once it had started, the growth of the tree could not be stopped: And the summit rose to heaven // And its leaves in air expanded, // In their course the clouds it hindered, // And the driving clouds impeded, // And it hid the shining sunlight, // And the gleaming of the moonlight. Then the aged Vainamoinen, // Pondered deeply and reflected, // 'Is there none to fell the oak-tree, // And o'erthrow the tree majestic? // Sad is now the life of mortals, // And for fish to swim is dismal, // Since the air is void of sunlight, // And the gleaming of the moonlight.' 'One sought above in the sky, below in the lap of the earth', as we are informed by variants, but then Vainamoinen asked his devine mother for help. Then a man arose from ocean // From the waves a hero started, // Not the hugest of the hugest, // Not the smallest of the smallest. // As a man's thumb was his stature; // Lofty as the span of woman. The 'puny man from the ocean', whose 'hair reached down to his heels, the beard to his knees', announces, 'I have come to fell the oak tree / And to splinter it to fragments'. And so he does. In several variants the oak is said to have fallen over the Northland River, so as to form the bridge into the abode of the dead. Holmberg (quoted by Lauri Honko, 'Finnen', Wb. Myth., p. 369) took the oak for the Milky Way ... From the 'Shadow Tree' to the heliacal rising of the Chinese Willow star δ Hydrae there are 7 weeks:
The measure 129.6 + 365.25 - 260.0 = 234.85, but I have to change the stars to move forward in time, of course:
I suddenly realize a possible solution to one of my old problems: The shape at the top (Ç) of the 'tree' in Ka1-20 maybe is what is drawn upside down (È) and hidden in Ka3-20:
In 'June 8 there were no stars of importance rising heliacally, perhaps an argument for the Tree in *Ka1-20 being correctly placed there and not in 'December 6. The jump 48 days to 'July 28 is 2 more than the jump in the number of glyphs (46), because I have assumed such should be the case - see in Ka2. Moreover, we should remember the rather convincing Castor glyphs, a 'proof' we should have the same stars and months in K as in G:
Thus my idea to see the opposite side of the sky roof in K compared to the view in G has to be abandoned. But we have gained the important insight of why 'May 24 should be the 1st day in the calendar - it is the date which corresponds to 185 days before the heliacal rising of Antares:
