TRANSLATIONS
Maybe the running sign stands for time moving. It could be simply a fusion of tagata and vae:
It would then not necessarily mean a time of equinox, but it would exclude a solstice. We can integrate hanau and running people to see if hanau excludes running:
Indeed, there is a tendency of hanau excluding running, you don't run when giving birth. Next reflection relates to vai in Gb4-23:
It comes 4 glyphs beyond Gb4-19, and could therefore allude to 364 (4 days beyond 360):
On the other hand is Gb5-5 at position 359 not correspondingly located (as Gb4-22). Maitaki in Ga7-24 and in Gb4-27 together cover 12 * 13 days, and haś at 192 comes before:
13 * 14 = 182 is a fact which could raise interest for 12 * 13. Next page:
If a running leg indicates time moving, then the long legs above could refer to how during spring time runs fast, a sign which must stop at summer solstice, but which is kept at left already from Ga6-17. This coincides with the time when in the parallel K text ua arrives:
The first half year, measured as 192 days, will then have completed its major (spring) part at day 12 * 12 = 144, according to K. Only 48 days then remain. At right in Kb3-8 comes an orderly drawn henua. The hand is empty at right in Kb3-7. |
