1. The end glyph of the Q text is number 732 (= 12 * 61) and we can count 91 * 2 = 182:
Perhaps the Q text covers 2 years or maybe only 1 year with 2 glyphs per day. 732 / 2 = 366 (= 6 * 122). In H and P there seems to follow a sign of absence (negation) of winter (toga), because there is a pair of these glyphs:
936 / 2 = 468 could perhaps refer to May 19 and 940 / 2 = 470 could similarly refer to May 21 (61 days after March 21):
Day 61 beyond equinox coincides with 4h, which might explain the use of number 61 in the H, Q, and P texts. In Hb6-37 ua (rain) is reversed, and the glyph is flanked by a pair of - i..e. presumably with a negating function - normally oriented ua signs. Together these 3 glyphs will therefore form a strong Sign for 'rain is over'. But in P it is the opposite - rain lies in front:
At Hb6-37 we possibly should count 940 / 5 = 188. Comparing with 91 * 2 = 182 at Qb9-12 the date might be 188 - 182 = 6 days (= 940 - 934) later. H and Q could agree on what season it is. At Hb6-37 the glyph number 940 could refer to 4h (80 + 61 = 141 days from January 1). To divide by 5 and to divide by 2 are opposite operations. If it sometimes feels difficult to divide by 5 the result can quickly be found by multiplying by 2 instead. E.g. is 940 / 5 = 2 * 94. In P the ua sequence has 6 glyphs instead of 3. We can imagine these 3 glyphs in H are referring to the spring days (like the 3 islets outside the southwest corner of Easter Island), whereas the 6 glyphs in P could refer to a season half a year later (or earlier). |
