Hau tea in Ca2-1 maybe should be contrasted with
how in *Ca14-11 light was hidden behind a mountain.
However,
as far south as on Easter Island
they would have
been unable to observe Polaris (declination 89º N).

Greek, θεος, m. θεα, f. god, goddess, divinity generally. In Greek, θεος signified no god in particular, but was applied ot almost all the gods, though perhaps more often to the sun. As the first gods were the sun, moon, &c., their brilliancy and whiteness were the underlying sense of the names given them. That primary sense was apparently lost in the Greek and the other West Aryan branches, though in the Polynesian both the primary and derivative sense has been preserved, as in the Marqu. atea, both god and light, in the Tah. tapu-tea, the rainbow, and the Sam. tapu-i-tea, the evening star...

The
word mau-ga means not only 'mountain' but
also e.g. 'last' and if there
were
mountains at the horizon in the west they would
have hidden the Sun at his
last daylight station before descending - before
being captured (haka-mau) by the grasping
hand.

348 = 12 * 29 |

22 * 17 appears rather meaningless. But if we should eliminate the sign for multiplication the rest alludes to π (= 22 / 7).

Counting from Spica (and Alcor)
in Cb8-6 (where 8 * 6 = 48) to Cb14-13 results
in 734 - 569 = 165 days. October 10 (heliacal Spica) + 165
= 283 + 165 = 448. Or by using the RA structure: 202.7 + 165 =
367.7 = 2.45 + 365.25. This indicates
Cb14-13 should be around March 24.
According to Hevelius this
position
(RA day 3) is
at the girdle of Andromeda, where he
has put θ Andromedae (2.7).

Θ (θ) |

...
The form of the letter
θ suggests a midline ('waist'),
although the origin of θ is the
Phoenician tēth which means
'wheel'. This in turn could have
originated from a glyph named 'good'
which in Egypt was nfr ...
... θ is the last star in the Ara
constellation, and the ancient
meaning of this letter was described
as a wheel by the Phoenicians but
for the Egyptian it meant 'good.
When the wheel of time has come full
cycle around and the upside down
fire-altar is in the past the times
ahead should be good (or lucky
Sa'ad)
... |
The waist
of Andromeda could have been the
border between the old year and the new
year.
Or rather - from judging how
Cb14-13 was designed - the border between
the final of the dark time and the beginning
of a new year
of light
ahead.
| To 1. Particle sometimes
used with the article in ancient legends; i uto to te hau,
the ribbon was in the float. 2. To rise (of the sun) during the
morning hours up to the zenith: he-to te raá. Vanaga.
1. Of. T Pau., Ta.: to, of. Mgv.: to,
genitive sign. Mq.: to, of, for. 2. This, which. Churchill.
Mgv.: To, to make a canoe of planks. Mq.:
to, to build a canoe. Sa.: to, to build. Churchill. |
The Sign in form of a
'curve in front' - cfr the left arm of
Rogo in Cb14-12 - probably means
'beginning'. I made a mistake earlier
when I thought such a curve meant 'end
of the journey'.
... The dream soul came to Rangi Meamea
and looked around searchingly. The dream
soul spoke: 'Here at last is level land
where the king can live.' She named the
place 'Rangi Meamea A Hau Maka O Hiva'.
The mountain she named 'Peke Tau O Hiti A
Hau Maka O Hiva'.
The dream soul moved along a curve from
Peke Tau O Hiti to the mountain Hau
Epa, which she named 'Maunga Hau Epa
A Hau Maka O Hiva'.

Why did she name
the mountain Peke Tau O Hiti and not Heke Tau O Hiti?
| Peke
1. To bite (of fish or lobster pecking at
fishhook). 2. To repeat an action: he-peke te rua; ina ekó
peke-hakaou te rua don't you do it a second time; ina ekó
