My
leading idea
so
far
in
the
current
discussion
is
that
the
black
nose
of
the
Lion
(Al
Minhar
al
Asad,
κ)
possibly
could have
represented
the
final
of a
cycle,
similar
to
the
final
(and
presumably
new beginning) at
Alphekka
Meridiana,
the
last
star
in
the
Babylonian
triplet
of
God
Paths:
The
7th
Arab
station
Al
Tarf
(the
End)
refers
to
Alterf
(λ
Leonis,
at
the
tongue
of
the
Lion)
-
not
to
be
confused
with
the
star
Al
Tarf
(β
Cancri)
at
Ga3-1
and
19
days
earlier:

A
journey
by
boat
could
have
been ahead
and
possibly
the
black
(hatch-marked)
henua
was
the
opposite
to
land,
i.e.
this
type
of
glyph
may
have
illustrated
water.
According
to
Manuscript
E
the
explorers
left
their
old
homeland
in
Vaitu
Nui
25
and
touched
land
again
in
Maro
1:
...
On
the
twenty-fifth
day
of
the
first
month
('Vaitu
Nui'),
Ira
and
Makoi
set
sail;
on
the
first
day
of
the
month
of
June
('Maro'),
the
bow
of
Ira's
canoe
touched
land
again

Later
on
in
this
series
of
rituals,
the
Chorti
go
through
a
ceremony
they
call
raising
the
sky.
This
ritual
takes
place
at
midnight
on
the
twenty-fifth
of
April
and
continues
each
night
until
the
rains
arrive
...
There
seems
to
have
been
4 +
31 =
35
days
out
at
sea
for
the
explorers.
If
their
journey
began
in
APRIL
25,
then the
corresponding
glyph
could
not
be
in
line
Ga8
-
unless
we
changed
our
reading
from
heliacal
to
nakshatra,
'turned
it
upside
down'.
