The Foundation - Persian and Coptic: Bunda (= ξ Aquarii) - was evidently connected with the culmination at 21h of Sirius:
And as to the culmination of Fomalhaut ... Allen has documented all his star culminations at 21h, which should be due to an effort of keeping the culminations at their proper places according to the ancients, 24h (spring equinox) - 21h = 3h = 24h / 8 = 45º. 3h corresponds to 366 / 8 = 45.75 of my right ascension days and *366 - *46 = *320 (Dramasa, σ Octantis) ... it would come at 39 Akahanga:
And *35 at ρ Ceti will then remind us of *35 at 6 Ahu Akapu:
The orbit of earth around the sun is not a circle but an ellipse, and therefore the number of days in summer is not the same as the number of days in winter. ... If summer is defined from the equinoxes there will be 185 days in the northern summer and 180 in the southern summer:
From winter solstice to summer solstice north of the equator there are (365 - 355) + 172 = 182 days. From summer solstice to winter solstice there are 355 - 172 = 183 days ... |
