... Late in the afternoon or
toward evening, when the sun is in the west, the
rays strike the ornaments and the reflected
light can be seen by canoes approaching the
shore. To this day, the Easter Islanders have a
well-developed system of fixed points along the
shore that helps fishing boats determine their
positions. Perhaps the 'beacons' of Ruhi
Hepii and Pu were intended to focus
on a point out at sea to the west of Apina,
since this is the best landing site for
(European) ships. However, this explanation is
unsatisfactory primarily because the shining
ornaments were intended as guides to voyagers
from Polynesia. I would rather suspect that
Ruhi Hepii and Pu were designations
for two stars, which were essential in
determining the proper sea route from the land
of origin to Easter Island. The information,
which was projected westward by the two
'beacons', only had to be applied to the proper
season, and, with the help of the (heliacal)
pattern of the rising stars, the route across
the sea became fixed in the memory of the
immigrants. Since 'adornment' (rei) is
sometimes part of the name of a star (RAP.
tuhi rei and rei atanga, Barthel 1962b:3),
it could be considered a likely astronomic indicator

... Mons
Maenalus, at the feet of Boötes, was formed
by Hevelius, and published in his Firmamentum
Sobiescianum; this title coinciding with
those of neighboring stellar groups bearing
Arcadian names. It is sometimes, although
incorrectly, given as Mons Menelaus, -
perhaps, as Smyth suggested, after the
Alexandrian astronomer referred to by Ptolemy
and Plutarch. The Germans know it as the Berg
Menalus; and the Italians as Menalo.
Landseer has a striking representation of the
Husbandsman, as he styles Boötes, with sickle
and staff, standing on this constellation
figure. A possible explanation of its
origin may be found in what
Hewitt writes in his Essays on the Ruling
Races of Prehistoric Times: The Sun-god
thence climbed up the mother-mountain of the
Kushika race as the constellation Hercules, who
is depicted in the old traditional pictorial
astronomy as climbing painfully up the hill to
reach the constellation of the Tortoise, now
called Lyra, and thus attain the polar star
Vega, which was the polar star from 10000 to
8000 B.C.
May not this modern companion constellation,
Mons Maenalus, be from a recollection of this
early Hindu conception of our Hercules
transferred to the adjacent Bootes?

In the A text number 29 was used when counting from

dark night of Ohiro (Mercury).
... Ganz ähnlich is der Name 'Gott von Duazag'
des Gottes Nabū ... zu erklären.
Er bezeichnet ihn als den Gott des Wachtstums,
welches als aus dem Osten stammend betrachtet wird,
weil die Sonne, die das Wachstum bringt, im Osten
aufgeht.
Dass aber Nabū als Ost-Gott aufgefasst wurde,
hängt damit zusammen, dass sein Stern, der Mercur,
nur im Osten oder Westen sichtbar ist ...
Hiro.
1. A deity invoked when
praying for rain (meaning uncertain). 2.
To twine tree fibres (hauhau, mahute)
into strings or ropes. Ohirohiro,
waterspout (more exactly pú ohirohiro),
a column of water which rises spinning
on itself. Vanaga. To spin, to twist. P
Mgv.: hiro, iro, to make a
cord or line in the native manner by
twisting on the thigh. Mq.: fió,
hió, to spin, to twist, to twine.
Ta.: hiro, to twist. This differs
essentially from the in-and-out movement
involved in hiri 2, for here the
movement is that of rolling on the axis
of length, the result is that of
spinning. Starting with the coir fiber,
the first operation is to roll (hiro)
by the palm of the hand upon the thigh,
which lies coveniently exposed in the
crosslegged sedentary posture, two or
three threads into a cord; next to plait
(hiri) three or other odd number
of such cords into sennit. Hirohiro,
to mix, to blend, to dissolve, to
infuse, to inject, to season, to streak
with several colors; hirohiro ei
paatai, to salt. Hirohiroa,
to mingle; hirohiroa ei vai,
diluted with water. Churchill. Ta.:
Hiro, to exaggerate. Ha.:
hilohilo, to lengthen a speech by
mentioning little circumstances, to make
nice oratorial language. Churchill.
Whiro
'Steals-off-and-hides'; also [in
addition to the name of Mercury] the

fallen fruit or leaves ... In Viti virimbai
has the meaning of putting up a fence (mbai
fence); viri does not appear independently in
this use, but it is undoubtedly homogenetic with
Samoan vili, which has a basic meaning of
going around; virikoro then signifies the

... In other words, the ancient Druidic
religion based on the oak-cult will be
swept away by Christianity and the door
- the god Llyr - will languish forgotten
in the Castle of Arianrhod, the
Corona Borealis. This helps us to
understand the relationship at Rome of
Janus and the White Goddess Cardea who
is ... the Goddess of Hinges who came to
Rome from Alba Longa. She was the hinge
on which the year swung - the ancient
Latin, not the Etruscan year - and her
importance as such is recorded in the
Latin adjective cardinalis - as
we say in English 'of cardinal
importance - which was also applied to
the four main winds; for winds were
considered as under the sole direction
of the Great Goddess until Classical
times ... |
