... Similarly could Naos (*121 → 11 * 11) be associated with 8h and the place 28 days after the solstice, i.e. 65 days after Alcyone (*56). 65 is the palindrome of 56. 11 * 11 = 8 weeks + 5 * 13 → 513 = 19 * 27 → with 513 as the 'partial palindrome' of 531 = 18 * 29½.

... In China, every year about the beginning of April, certain officials called Sz'hüen used of old to go about the country armed with wooden clappers. Their business was to summon the people and command them to put out every fire. This was the beginning of the season called Han-shih-tsieh, or 'eating of cold food' ...

... The son of Zebedee and Salome, James is styled 'the Greater' to distinguish him from the Apostle James 'the Less', who was probably shorter of stature. We know nothing of St. James's early life. He was the brother of John, the beloved disciple, and probably the elder of the two ... James' emblem was the scallop shell (or 'cockle shell'), and pilgrims to his shrine often wore that symbol on their hats or clothes. The French for a scallop is coquille St. Jacques, which means 'cockle (or mollusk) of St. James'. The German word for a scallop is Jakobsmuschel, which means 'mussel (or clam) of St. James'; the Dutch word is Jacobsschelp, meaning 'shell of St. James' ... The scallop shell is represented in the decoration of churches named after St. James, such as in St James' Church, Sydney, where it appears in a number of places, including in the mosaics on the floor of the chancel. When referring to St James, the scallop shell is represented with convex perspective. Referring to Venus the perspective is concave ... The date to celebrate St James (the Great) was July 25 in Western Christianity, April 30 in Eastern Christianity, and December 30 in the Hispanic Church. On the other hand, St John (the apostle) was celebrated in December 27 according to all these church traditions. St George, who died in April 23 in the year 303 AD, was celebrated in April 23 ...

Possibly the Y-shape and the wedge are alluding to such instruments as those of the twin astronomers in the illustration below:

"The Chinese picture illustrates in true archaic spirit (which means that only hints are given, and the spectator has to work out for himself the significance of the details) the surveying of the universe. The two characters surrounded by constellations are Eu Hsi and Nu Kua, i.e., the craftsman god and his paredra, who measure the 'squareness of the earth' and the 'roundness of heaven' with their implements, the square with the plumb bob hanging from it, and the compass. The intertwined serpent-like bodies of the deities indicate clearly enough, although in a peculiar 'projection', circular orbits intersecting each other at regular intervals." (Hamlet's Mill)
