After this long
detour encompassing the first
3 lines on
side a of the
tablet, for
reassessing the
value of earlier
ideas and for
disussing new
perceptions, we will
return to line Gb2,
hopefully in a better
shape for
uinderstanding what
it has to say.
Once again, Baten Algiedi (Belly
of the Goat, ω
Capricorni) is a star which rose heliacally at
Gb1-22 at a time when close to the Full Moon in
the night could be observed (at the opposite
side of the year) a position for the Sun which I
have chosen to name his Belly:

The calendar dates all the way
down to the time of Bharani seem to state
this (Ga3) was where a new cycle should begin.
Stars, lunar stations, and glyphs agree.
The 'birth' of a new cycle ought
to be opposite to its 'death' half a year later,
viz. when the Sun would reach the Belly of his
opponent the Goat,
and indeed there is a rau hei
victim hanging upside down in Gb1-22, when in
the time of Bharani the day number was
354 (= 12 * 29½):

1. Branch of mimosa. 2. Killed enemy. 3.
Hanged 'fish'. 'Branche
du mimosa (signe de mort), ennemie túe
(poisson suspendu)' according to
Jaussen. Barthel.
Another rau hei came 3
days later, and the reason could here have
been heliacal stars in Aquarius:

anciently Ko, the central one
of the seven sieu which, taken
together, were known as Heung Wu,
the Black Warrior, in the northern
quarter of the sky.
It is found in Hindu lists as
Kalpeny, of unknown
signification. On the Euphrates it
was Kakkab Nammaχ,
the Star of Mighty Destiny, that may
have given origin to the title of
the manzil [Al Sa'd al Su'ud],
as well as to the astrologers' name
for it - Fortuna
