Once again. When comparing Ga2-26 with Cb4-20 we can see
they are not exactly alike:

Possibly Cb4-20 (→ 420 = 7 * 60 = 6 * 70) is the more
basic form, in contrast to Ga2-26 which has a broader
opening (vaha) between the 'fingers' at top left.
Vaha. Hollow;
opening; space between the fingers (vaha rima);
door cracks (vaha papare). Vahavaha, to
fight, to wrangle, to argue with abusive words. Vanaga.
1. Space, before T; vaha takitua, perineum. PS
Mgv.: vaha, a space, an open place. Mq.: vaha,
separated, not joined. Ta.: vaha, an opening.
Sa.: vasa, space, interval. To.: vaha,
vahaa, id. Fu.: vasa, vāsaŕ,

2. Muscle, tendon; vahavaha,

The broader space at left could have referred to where the Sun
was, cfr 'broad daylight'.

Δ (δ) |
... Delta
(uppercase Δ, lowercase δ) ... is the
fourth letter of the Greek alphabet. In
the system of Greek numerals it has a
value of 4. It was derived from the
Phoenician letter Dalet.
Letters that come from
delta include Latin D and Cyrillic Д. A
river delta (originally, the Nile River
delta) is so named because its shape
approximates the upper-case letter delta
(the shape is a triangle) ...
Dalet (dāleth,
also spelled Daleth or Daled)
is the fourth letter of many Semitic
alphabets ... The letter is based on a
glyph of the Middle Bronze Age
alphabets, probably called dalt
'door' (door in Modern Hebrew is
delet), ultimately based on a
hieroglyph depicting a door.
... Sorrowing, then, the two women
placed Osiris's coffer on a boat, and
when the goddess Isis was alone with it
at sea, she opened the chest and, laying
her face on the face of her brother,
kissed him and wept. The myth goes on to
tell of the blessed boat's arrival in
the marshes of the Delta, and of how
Set, one night hunting the boar by the
light of the full moon, discovered the
sarcophagus and tore the body into
fourteen pieces, which he scattered
abroad; so that, once again, the goddess
had a difficult task before her. She was
assisted, this time, however, by her
little son Horus, who had the head of a
hawk, by the son of her sister Nephtys,
little Anubis, who had the head of a
jackal, and by Nephtys herself, the
sister-bride of their wicked brother
Set. Anubis, the elder of the two boys,
had been conceived one very dark night,
we are told, when Osiris mistook Nephtys
for Isis; so that by some it is argued
that the malice of Set must have been
inspired not by the public virtue and
good name of the noble culture hero, but
by this domestic inadventure. The
younger, but true son, Horus, on the
other hand, had been more fortunately
conceived - according to some, when Isis
lay upon her dead brother in the boat,
or, according to others, as she
fluttered about the palace pillar in the
form of a bird.
The four bereaved and searching
divinities, the two mothers and their
two sons, were joined by a fifth, the
moon-god Thoth (who appears sometimes in
the form of an ibis-headed scribe, at
other times in the form of a baboon),
and together they found all of Osiris
save his genital member, which had been
swallowed by a fish. They tightly
swathed the broken body in linen
bandages, and when they performed over
it the rites that thereafter were to be
continued in Egypt in the ceremonial
burial of kings, Isis fanned the corpse
with her wings and Osiris revived, to
become the ruler of the dead. He now
sits majestically in the underworld, in
the Hall of the Two Truths, assisted by
forty-two assessors, one from each of
the principal districts of Egypt; and
there he judges the souls of the dead.
These confess before him, and when their
hearts have been weighed in a balance
against a feather, receive, according to
their lives, the reward of virtue and
the punishment of sin ...

The K text, which is parallel with the text at the
beginning of side a on the G tablet, has the
same type of sign:
|
|
Ga2-26 (57) |
Ka3-14 (→ π) |
Ka3-14 implies number π and therefore we ought to
think that also Ga2-26 is implying π = 22 / 7. Why
then is this glyph not number 27 in the line? Probably
because the creator of the G text here has indicated that we
should begin counting from the last glyph in line Ga1:
Manacle |
ziqq |
Phoenician zayin |
|
Greek zeta |
Ζ (ζ) |
...
Zeta (uppercase Ζ,
lowercase ζ;
Greek: ζήτα
... is the sixth letter of the Greek
alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals,
it has a value of 7. It was derived from the
Phoenician letter Zayin. Letters that
arose from zeta include the Roman Z and
Cyrillic З ...
Zayin
(also spelled Zain or Zayn or
simply Zay) is the seventh letter of
many Semitic abjads ... It represents the
sound [z]. The
Phoenician letter appears to be named after
a sword or other weapon. (In Biblical
Hebrew, 'Zayin' means sword, and the
verb 'Lezayen' means to arm. In
modern Hebrew, 'zayin' means penis
and 'lezayen' is a vulgar term which
generally means to perform sexual
intercourse and is used in a similar fashion
to the English word fuck, although the older
meaning survives in 'maavak mezuyan'
(armed struggle) and 'beton
mezuyan' (armed, i.e., reinforced
concrete). The Proto-Sinaitic glyph
according to Brian Colless may have been
called ziqq, based on a hieroglyph
depicting a 'manacle'.
