Another reason could possibly be to reach sums (18 + 22 = 40 and 32 + 38 = 70) relating to the pattern of the week (and indirectly, maybe, the year): 40 (4 'decades') would then allude to Wednesday and 70 to Saturday. Odin had only one eye - after having payed with one at the 'water hole' of Mimer, but Saturn must have had two, I think:
There are two fishes (Hb9-53) and two holes (Hb9-55) in Saturn's day. 9 * 36 = 4 * 81, a 'square' is completed. 9 * 55 = 5 * 99 and 9 together with 9 is 81 or 99. In the Mamari moon calendar there are 36 glyphs to the middle. 9 * 58 = 522 = 18 * 29. This raises the interesting question if pu glyphs incorporate the same type of sign (holes) as honui. If so, then pu glyphs should be important for finding out the structures of texts. In G for example, we immediately can see lots of possible cues connected with those glyphs I have listed as pu in the catalogue:
Most conspicious (and therefore presumably important) is Gb2-16. 2 * 16 = 32 and 272 = 240 + 32 = 4 * 68. It comes close after Gb2-7 and we are at Te Pou:
Earlier we found a possible calendar for the week beginning with Gb1-26 (as in the sun king's last residence, Hanga Moria One). Gb2-4 has one 'eye' at bottom, presumably it is Mercury. Gb2-5 has a henua which is based on dry land (straight bottom line). In Gb2-6 Jupiter then generates offcome together with the following Venus (Gb2-7), and Saturn (Gb2-8) completes the week. He has a bigger 'eye' at bottom than Mercury and two maro sprouting (the mirror image of Gb2-2 where Mars also has 9 feathers but in opposite order). 9 + 9 = 18. Mars announces light, Saturn darkness. Venus carries a child - a tamaiti glyph certainly is alluded to. I must immediately include it as a tamaiti glyph in my extended catalogue as viewed from the glyph dictionary:
Ga7-11 has ordinal number 181 and when counting to reach the ordinal numbers for Gb4-7 and Gb7-3 we should notice that 91 and 181 are the ordinal numbers from the beginning of side b up to and including the last glyph in line b3 respectively in line b6:
A quarter is covered from Gb1-1 up to and including Gb3-30:
Here we can see the reason why there is a hole in Gb3-15, it must be due to the time when sun 'disappears' in autumn. 306 - 230 = 4 * 19. There is a change in rule here, and moon takes over:
Next quarter ends with Gb6-28 (411)
Tamaiti comes at Gb7-3 (at 181 + 3 = 184). A new year must appear when the old one has gone. Likewise we find a tamaiti (Gb4-7) after sun has gone down in the west. |
