5-1. What immense efforts must have been spent in establishing
the measures of time-space cosmos!
... Saturn does give the measures: this
is the essential point. How are we to reconcile it with
Saturn the First King, the ruler of the Golden Age who is
now asleep at the outer confines of the world? The conflict
is only apparent, as will be seen. For now it is essential
to recognize that, whether one has to do with the
Mesopotamian Saturn, Enki / Ea, or with Ptah of Egypt, he is
the 'Lord of Measures' - spell it 'me' in Sumerian,
'parshu' in Akkadian, 'maat' in Egyptian. And
the same goes for His Majesty, the Yellow Emperor of China -
yellow, because the element earth belongs to Saturn - 'Huang-ti
established everywhere the order for the sun, the moon and
the stars'. The melody remains the same. It might help to
understand the general idea, but particularly the
lucubrations of Proclus, to have a look at the figure drawn
by Kepler, which represents the moving triangle fabricated
by 'Great Conjunctions', that is those of Saturn and
Jupiter. One of these points needs roughly 2.400 years to
move through the whole zodiac ...
We have gradually begun to perceive a few of the
'backbones'. There were 5 times 20 right ascension days
from Alcyone (*56) to Tania Australis (*156) high
up in the north. And the last glyph in
line Ea3 - which line finished prematurely - was when the Sun
rose together with the Hip (θ)
of Aquarius.
Tua. 1. Back,
shoulder, tu'a ivi, shoulder blade; tu'a ivi
more, lumbago; moa tu'a ivi raá, 'sun-back
chicken': chicken with a yellow back which shines in the
sun. 2. Behind (a locative adverb, used with i, ki,
a, o, etc). Tu'a-papa, pelvis, hips. Vanaga.
1. Behind, back, rear; ki tua, after; o tua,
younger; taki tua, perineum. 2. Sea urchin,
echinus. The word must have a germ sense indicating
something spinous which will be satisfactorily
descriptive of the sea urchin all spines, the prawn with
antennae and thin long legs, and in the Maori the shell
of Mesodesma spissa. Tuaapapa, haunch,
hip, spine. Tuahaigoigo, tattooing on the back.
Tuahuri, abortion; poki tuahuri, abortive
child. Tuaivi, spine, vertebræ,
back, loins; mate mai te tuaivi,
ill at ease. Tuakana,
elder, elder brother; tuakana tamaahina,
elder sister. Tuamouga,
mountain summit. Tuatua,
to glean. Mgv. tua: To fell, to cut down.
Ta.: tua, to cut. Mq.: tua, to fell, to
cut down. Ma.: tua, id. Tuaki, to
disembowel. Ma.: tuaki, to clean fish. Tuavera,
the last breadfruit spoiled by the wind. Ta.: tuavera,
burnt by the sun. Churchill.

Alcyone was the Queen of Sailing and
at
Naos could have
been her Ship. In between was the moist
Betelgeuze on the brink of the celestial river:
... On side B together
with the four edges is a series of notches that are clearly
set in an intentional pattern. The edges contain a total of
39 notches in groups of 6, 13, 7 and 13. A further 49
notches on side B are arranged in four vertical
lines of 13, 10, 12 and 13 respectively plus a further notch
that could be in either of the middle two lines ...
The number of nothches on the
edges of the mammoth bone was 39 which possibly could have
represented the measure from day 378 (365 + 13) to day 378 +
39 = 417 (February 17) corresponding to
glyph number 100.
The end of glyph line Ea4 was at glyph number 136, which
ought to have alluded to the place of Alcyone in
the Gregorian calendar, viz. to day 80 + *56 = 136 (May
16):

'From the time I was in
your womb,' Maui went on, 'I have
known the names of these children of yours.
Listen,' he said as he pointed to his
brothers in turn. 'You are Maui mua,
you are Maui roto, you are Maui
taha, and you are Maui pae. And
as for me, I am Maui potiki, Maui-the-last-born.
And here I am.' When he had finished,
Taranga had to wipe her eyes because
there were tears in them, and she said: 'You
are indeed my lastborn son. You are the
child of my old age. When I had you, no one
knew, and what you have been saying is the
truth. Well, as you were formed out of my
topknot you can be Maui tikitiki a
Taranga.' So that became his name,
meaning Maui-formed-in-the-topknot-of-Taranga.
And this is very strange, because women in
those days did not have topknots. The
topknot was the most sacred part of a
person, and only men had them ... |

Age. Particle sometimes used with the
imperative of oho, turu, iri to express the idea of going
somewhere unerringly, confidently: ka-turu-age koe ki tai, go
down to the sea now; ka-iri-age koe ki taaku me'e to'o-mai,
be sure to go up and bring my things. Nowadays it is only used with
those three verbs, but its use seems to have been more general once,
as ancient chant has these verses: Ka-iri-age Rano Kau te ga atua
hami regarega, Ka-oka-age Ha'w koka te korotea a Kava te ruruti,
Ka-hi-age Hatehate te kahi-riva a tumu. Vanaga. |
