I imagine the following pattern could explain haga rave as the 'open mouth' ('deer') in the west (Manik):
Mago in Gb7-13 is clearly pregnant and both its open mouth and bent tail connects it to the form of haga rave. In Gb5-12 the old sun has been swallowed. His time has run out, illustrated as va'e pau (exhausted). The haga rave sign at left in Gb5-12 is no longer wide open, its time is in the past. From the lowest position on land (the foot) sun must into the water, illustrated as the bulging stomach of mago. ... In the deep night before the image [of Lono] is first seen, there is a Makahiki ceremony called 'splashing-water' (hi'uwai). Kepelino tells of sacred chiefs being carried to the water where the people in their finery are bathing; in the excitement created by the beauty of their attire, 'one person was attracted to another, and the result', says this convert to Catholicism, 'was by no means good' ... Ga3-23 has a sun head, illustrating how sun now is moving upwards again, arriving from the sea in the east ready to walk on land. I think this is a true picture, but how can I 'prove' it? And how can I present it in the glyph dictionary? The pattern can be simplified into:
Thereby no general statement about haga rave glyphs is presented, only an explanation of the quartet. Is the pattern wrong because sun should move counterclockwise on Easter Island? But time maybe is generated by the moon, which moves clockwise. Growth and development are exponential (curved), not straight, and haga rave glyphs are female in character. At bottom Vinapu should be, at the top Anakena. But shouldn't Hanga Te Pau also be at the bottom level? ... The cult place of Vinapu is located between the fifth and sixth segments of the dream voyage of Hau Maka. These segments, named 'Te Kioe Uri' (inland from Vinapu) and 'Te Piringa Aniva' (near Hanga Pau Kura) flank Vinapu from both the west and the east... On the 'second list of place names', Hanga Te Pau is called 'the middle (zenith) of the land' (he tini o te kainga). This may refer to a line bisecting the island, but it can just as easily mean the gathering of a great number (of islanders). The plaza (130 x 130 meters) would have been very well suited for this purpose. The crack in the shell of the turtle suddenly bursts across the whole of the top carapace, but the bottom is left intact: The top is the creative part of the turtle - the time of 'new moon'. South of the equator midday sun is in the north, therefore Anakena is the 'home' of the sun. At new year the crack in time occurs at the opposite pole, in the south, at Hanga Te Pau. A line of fire is drawn from Anakena to Vinapu with lightning speed, enabling a new year to evolve beyond the crack. Maybe we in henua ora have an illustration of the crack (middle straight vertical line) emerging from the sun 'nut' (at bottom)?
Hanga Te Pau is the last position before the crack in time. Beyond the crack a season of sea arrives, when young sun must be inside the 'canoe':
Yet, the sun and the kuhane of Hau Maka moved counterclockwise. If sun is fully grown at Anakena, from which direction did he arrive there? The global map of G should include Gb5-12, and when I count I discover it has ordinal number 365. Gb5-12 certainly is Hanga Te Pau. Now we know for sure.
The rising mago should also be included in the map:
The ordinal numbers 82 and 188 are not very suggestive. But we should presumably add 1 to reach Ga3-24:
189 = 3 * 3 * 3 * 7. High land arrives with Ka4-15 and therefore, presumably, also with Ga3-24. 3 * 24 = 72 = 360 / 5 and 4 * 15 = 60 = 360 / 6. But then high land apparently sinks down again, 16 periods later (or 14 according to K):
Still we have not reached summer solstice (at Gb1-6) and the Aztec calendar explains why:
The 'shark' (mago) is xoc (shark), the last day in the 'sky'. Land will then begin anew (by his turning into an alligator which can crawl up unto land). 9 'days' later land sinks into water (atl) again. The 'sky' season returns at summer solstice, presumably induced to it by Sirius, the dog-star. Hanga Te Pau lies in the sky, not on earth. It is the last 'day' of 'earth in the sky', the buzzard. Then comes the 'movement' (Ollin) when a new 'sky' is born in the 'watery' region of the sky. |
