Tagata (the fully grown 'person') in
Ga4-1 stands at the beginning of a new glyph line, and probably
Ga4-1--2 are to be read together - the season which is fully
grown is the season of takaure. Maybe the 3 glyph lines
a1--a3 are indicated by the 3 marks standing out at left
(meaning now in the past) from the 'body'.
Evidently there are several measures for Sun,
because 10
* 29 = 290 emerged as his last day before the takaure
season and earlier we have seen 10 * 26 and 10 * 30:
104 |
|
258 |
|
Ga4-21 (105) |
Gb5-10 (364) |
260 = 10 * 26 |
364 = 14 * 26 |
60 |
|
298 |
|
Ga3-1 (61) |
Gb5-6 (360) |
300
= 10 * 30 |
360
= 18 * 20 |
Which measure to choose in a given situation
ought to depend on what kind of event is due. 29 is an obvious
sign for 'the black cloth' (cfr the words of
Ulu: 'I have heard the voice of
the noble Mo'o, and he has told me that tonight, as soon
as darkness draws over the sea and the fires of the volcano
goddess, Pele, light the clouds over the crater of
Mount Kilauea, the black cloth
will cover my head ...').
