at first guessed we should
group together twice 3 days here (from Eb3-26). But then it
dawned upon me that we rather should perceive the pair

Hatu. 1. Clod of
earth; cultivated land; arable land (oone
hatu). 2. Compact mass of other
substances: hatu matá, piece of
obsidian. 3. Figuratively: manava
hatu, said of persons who, in
adversity, stay composed and in control
of their behaviour and feelings. 4. To
advise, to command. He hatu i te
vanaga rivariva ki te kio o poki ki ruga
ki te opata, they gave the refugees
the good advice not to climb the
precipice; he hatu i te vanaga
rakerake, to give bad advice. 5. To
collude, to unite for a purpose, to
concur. Mo hatu o te tia o te nua,
to agree on the price of a nua
cape. 6. Result, favourable outcome of
an enterprise. He ká i te umu mo te
hatu o te aga, to light the earth
oven for the successful outcome of an
enterprise. Vanaga. 1. Haatu,
hahatu, mahatu. To fold, to
double, to plait, to braid; noho hatu,
to sit crosslegged; hoe hatu,
clasp knife; hatuhatu, to deform.
2. To recommend. Churchill. In the
Polynesian dialects proper, we find
Patu and Patu-patu, 'stone',
in New Zealand; Fatu in Tahiti
and Marquesas signifying 'Lord',
'Master', also 'Stone'; Haku in
the Hawaiian means 'Lord', 'Master',
while with the intensitive prefix Po
it becomes Pohaku, 'a stone'.
Fornander.
Niu.
Palm tree, coconut tree; hua niu,
coconut. Vanaga. Coconut, palm,
spinning top. P Pau., Ta.:
niu,
coconut. Mgv.:
niu,
a top;
niu mea, coconut. Mq.:
niu,
coconut, a top. Churchill. The fruit of
miro.
Buck. T. 1. Coconut palm. 2. Sign for
peace. Henry. The sense of top lies in
the fact that the bud end of a coconut
shell is used for spinning, both in the
sport of children and as a means of
applying to island life the practical
side of the doctrine of chances. Thus it
may be that in New Zealand, in latitudes
higher than are grateful to the coconut,
the divination sense has persisted even
to different implements whereby the
arbitrament of fate may be declared.

... In Hindu legend
there was a mother goddess called Aditi, who had
seven offspring. She is called 'Mother of the Gods'.
Aditi, whose name means 'free, unbounded, infinity'
was assigned in the ancient lists of constellations as
the regent of the asterism Punarvasu.
Punarvasu is dual in form and means 'The Doublegood
Pair'. The singular form of this noun is used to refer
to the star Pollux. It is not difficult to surmise that
the other member of the Doublegood Pair was Castor. Then
the constellation Punarvasu is quite equivalent
to our Gemini, the Twins. In far antiquity (5800 B.C.)
the spring equinoctial point was predicted by the
heliacal rising of the Twins ...
|
Procyon was one of the 4 corner stars (stones) in the
Egyptian X:
... In ancient Egypt they thought Sirius
was behind the yearly rise of the Nile ... the seasonal
cycle, throughout the ancient world, was the foremost sign
of rebirth following death, and in Egypt
the chronometer of this cycle was
the annual flooding of the Nile ...
And when Metoro here said e rakau tapamea it
appears to have indicated a time-reversal, because the
tapamea (red count or red cloth) part of the glyph came first.
|
tapa mea |
... There seems to have been a little
difficulty at first in getting the machinery of the sky
into smooth running order, for some maintain that Ruddy
Sun and Waxing Moon disputed in a brotherly fashion. The
Sun desired the Moon to accompany him and suggested they
travel in daylight, while the Moon insisted they make
their rounds during the night. So they agreed, not too
amicably, to separate, the Moon saying pettishly, 'Very
well! You go by day and have the servile job of drying
women's washings!' And the Sun retorted, 'And you go by
night and be terrified by food-ovens!' The quarrel must
have been made up later, for the Moon visits the Sun for
a day or two each month ...
On the other hand should in the Polynesian languages the
subject matter come before the essence and the 'medicine' (rakau)
here (Eb3-29) seems to emerge from the reversed tapa mea.
