The 'classic' version, however, was much
more detailed: the rope would seem to
rise high into the skies, disappearing
from view. The boy would climb the rope
and be lost to view. The magician would
call back his boy assistant, and, on
getting no response, become furious. The
magician then armed himself with a knife
or sword and climbed the rope, vanishing
too. An argument would be heard, and
then limbs would start falling,
presumably cut from the assistant by the
magician. When all the parts of the
body, including the torso, landed on the
ground, the magician would climb down
the rope. He would collect the limbs and
put them in a basket, or collect the
limbs in one place and cover them with a
cape or blanket. Soon the boy would
appear, restored

together with the Sun in OCTOBER 16
(289 = 273 + 80 - 64). The position

... The Sacred Book of the ancient
Maya Quiche, the famous Popol Vuh
(the Book of Counsel) tells of
Zipacna, son of Vucub-Caquix (=
Seven Arata). He sees 400 youths
dragging a huge log that they want
as a ridgepole for their house.
Zipacna alone carries the tree
without effort to the spot where a
hole has been dug for the post to
support the ridgepole. The youths,
jealous and afraid, try to kill
Zipacna by crushing him in the hole,
but he escapes and brings down the
house on their heads. They are
removed to the sky, in a 'group',
and the Pleiades are called after
them ... |

... Wind winnowing is an
agricultural method developed by
ancient cultures for separating
grain from chaff. It is also used to
remove weevils or other pests from
stored grain.
Threshing, the separation of
grain or seeds from the husks and
straw, is the step in the chaff-removal
process that comes before winnowing
