3-9. The star θ Aquarii, Ancha (the Hip) was evidently at the end of line Ea3. In other words 8 days after Deneb Algiedi.

3 tall straight trees at far right could have been meant to represent the 3 right ascension days after *327 - notice the distribution of the sun flowers to the left of the middle in the illustration.

... Vainamoinen set about building a boat, but when it came to the prow and the stern, he found he needed three words in his rune that he did not know, however he sought for them. In vain he looked on the heads of the swallows, on the necks of the swans, on the backs of the geese, under the tongues of the reindeer. He found a number of words, but not those he needed ...

Tino. 1. Belly (as reported by a Spaniard in 1770). 2. Genitalia (modern usage). 3. Trunk (of a tree), keel (of a boat); tino maîka, banana trunk; tino vaka, keel. Vanaga. Body, matter; mea tino, material; tino kore, incorporeal. P Pau.: tino, a matter, a subject. Mgv.: tino, the body, trunk. Mq.: tino, nino, the body. Ta.: tino, id. Churchill.

Consulting my reference list for the Greek letters we can guess θ was a symbol for the cosmic 'waistline' between the northern and the southern hemispheres, i.e. marking an equinox. The hip is beginning below the waist. I cannot avoid thinking of the Meso-american ball-game where the players were required to hit the ball with their hips. The vertical dimension would then suddenly changed into a horizontal perspective, from outside to inside:

Φ Θ

Half a year away was another Hip star, viz. Coxa, θ Leonis (*169.4):

Counting *337.4 (Ancha) - *169.4 (Coxa) we will find the distance *168 (→ 364 - 196 → 2 * 84) right ascension days.

As it so happens Betelgeuze (*88 → 168 - 80) was rising together with the Sun in day 168 (→ 24 * 7).

The measure from 24 weeks to 364 / 2 = 182 days was a fortnight. Thus there were 14 days 'missing'. And this would result in 2 * 14 (→ All Hearts' Day) = 28 days missing for a whole year.

...The four bereaved and searching divinities, the two mothers and their two sons, were joined by a fifth, the moon-god Thoth (who appears sometimes in the form of an ibis-headed scribe, at other times in the form of a baboon), and together they found all of Osiris save his genital member, which had been swallowed by a fish ...

Some numbers were evidently ruling everything in the time-space cosmos.
