Next crucial date for the Explorers was "July 18, i.e. 8 days after they had slept at Te Pou. Page 23 was (apparently) rather short:

They went on and reached [he tuu] Akahanga, took a look at it [he ui] and looked around [he tikea]. They said: 'This is it!' and gave the name [he nape i te ingoa] 'Akahanga A Hau Maka'.

They went on and came to Hatinga Te Kohe and saw that in this place the kohe plant had been broken [hati]. They all said [he ki anake], 'Here it is, the kohe plant, troop of young men!'

This kohe plant had been broken by the feet [te vae]of the dream soul and therefore they gave the name 'Hatinga Te Kohe A Hau Maka'.

They went on and came to Roto Iri Are. Again [hokoou] they said,'Here it is, Roto Iri Are' and named (the place) 'Roto Iri Are A Hau Maka'.

he oho hokoou he tuu kia tama he tikea he They went on and came to Tama. They looked around and said, 'This is Tama.' They gave the name 'Tama, an evil fish (he ika kino), a very long nose (He ihu roroa).'

Again they went on and came to One Tea. They saw it, looked around, and gave the name 'One Tea A Hau Maka'.

Then they went on and came to Hanga Takaure. There they gave the name 'Hanga Takaure A Hau Maka'.

They made camp and rested at the Bay of Flies for a week (etahi pohitu).

On the eighteenth day of the month of July ('Anakena'), they went on from Hanga Takaure.

... This [η Carinae] is one of the most noted objects in the heavens, perhaps even so in almost prehistoric times, for Babylonian inscriptions seem to refer to a star noticeable from occasional faintness in its light, that Jensen thinks was η. And he claims it as one of the temple stars associated with Ea, or Ia, of Eridhu¹, the Lord of Waters, otherwise known as Oannes², the mysterious human fish and greatest god of the kingdom.

¹ Eridhu, or Eri-duga, the Holy City, Nunki, or Nunpe, one of the oldest cities in the world, even in ancient Babylonia, was that kingdom's flourishing port on the Persian Gulf, but, by the encroachment of the delta, its site is now one hundred miles inland. In its vicinity the Babylonians located their sacred Tree of Life.

² Berōssōs described Oannes as the teacher of early man in all knowledge; and in mythology he was even the creator of man and the father of Tammuz and Ishtar, themselves associated with other stars and sky figures. Jensen thinks Oannes connected with the stars of Capricorn; Lockyer finds his counterpart in the god Chnemu of Southern Egypt; and some have regarded him as the prototype of Noah ...

At the time of the Bull the Jar of Aquarius had been at the Full Moon in ST JOHN'S DAY.

... The evening of 23 June, St. John's Eve, is the eve of celebration before the Feast Day of Saint John the Baptist. The Gospel of Luke (Luke 1:36, 56-57) states that John was born about six months before Jesus; therefore, the feast of John the Baptist was fixed on 24 June, six months before Christmas Eve ...

... The manik, with the tzab, or serpent's rattles as prefix, runs across Madrid tz. 22 , the figures in the pictures all holding the rattle; it runs across the hunting scenes of Madrid tz. 61, 62, and finally appears in all four clauses of tz. 175, the so-called 'baptism' tzolkin. It seems impossible, with all this, to avoid assigning the value of grasping or receiving. But in the final confirmation, we have the direct evidence of the signs for East and West. For the East we have the glyph Ahau-Kin, the Lord Sun, the Lord of Day; for the West we have Manik-Kin, exactly corresponding to the term Chikin, the biting or eating of the Sun, seizing it in the mouth.

  

The pictures (from Gates) show east, north, west, and south; respectively (the lower two glyphs)  'Lord' (Ahau) and 'grasp' (Manik). Manik was the 7th day sign of the 20 and Ahau the last ...
