13. My reading which was generated by moving mechanically 136 glyphs forward from the heliacal rising of Antares resulted in the date April 10 for glyph 321:
Hoea pau at a supposed April 10 would be 100 - 51 = 49 days after kava at a supposed February 20, a difficult equation to explain - how could it be pau (very little left) after such a short time? Moving forward following the glyphs (instead of the dates) from kava in Gb5-25 to hoea pau, necessitates taking (472 - 379) + 321 = 414 steps - one more than 14 * 29½ = 413. But we could evade this little problem by counting Gb8-30 only once:
413 - 49 = 364. Possibly it means hoea pau at Gb3-30 represents both the end of a cycle with 14 * 29½ nights and a cycle with 364 days. 321 - 364 + 471 = 428 (20 days beyond equinox):
There could be a new solar year born at tao in Gb7-17 (50 days beyond hakaariki). February 19 + 50 days = 9 (February) + 31 (March) + 10 (April). April 10 is 20 days beyond March 21. And Gb4-28 at January 21 could allude to April 10. There seems to be a flame at center top in the hetuu glyph:
Is 42 * 8 = 336 a statement saying 472 - 336 = 136? Counting at the π glyph in position 192 we will find it corresponds to day number 336 in our calendar (192 + 144 = 336)
We can perceive a connection between kava in Gb5-25 and hoea pau 14 lunar months later. In the beginning a new 'fire' is generated and at the end of the cycle it is 'finished'. In Gb5-25 there are 2 mata in front, which is in harmony with a lunar cycle (waxing and waning). Both glyphs have 'fingers' at the top, though oriented in opposite directions, with those in hoea pau indicating a more narrow front similar to those at the back in hoea kava. From Gb5-25 to Gb3-30 there seems to be a time of plenty (much light, life). If we count mechanically the dates at hoea kava and hoea pau will be:
7 (Decembeer) + 31 (January) + 20 (February) = 58. We can guess the kava ceremony should be held in February. And then the perspective from north of the equator would lead to the arrival of a new Sun in early spring. 52 would presumably be the correct number in these circumstances, but the kava ceremony could be in the day before the King has been installed. After a few slight adjustments:
92 glyphs beyond Gb5-26 could allude to the distance from spring equinox to summer solstice north of the equator:
On the other hand, my first number (93 counted from kava) happens to be equal to 229 - 136 (= 183 - 90). |
