We have thanks to the vero glyphs been aware of how three different kinds of year are running out not far from each other:
The Rogo type of year is, though, special. Light disappears. The other two 'years' (rather half-years) are characterized by henua glyphs in full view. They are in glyph line 14, a fact which points at the moon. To reach Rogo at Ca13-20 in day 363 it is necessary to begin with day 1 at Ca1-1. 363 is possibly equal to 180 + 183 (alternatively to 183 + 180). Let us look:
The half-way mark lies in the 3rd period of the moon calendar. Ca1-1 contains a vero sign. At Ca7-9 time has reached 6 lunar months from that vero. The 2 first of the 9 glyphs of the 3rd period are at the end of these 177 days. And now we understand the reversed extra kai sign in Ca7-9. It means the season of growth has ended (here). A week is needed to reach to the beginning of next 6 lunar month period. 177 + 7 + 177 = 361, and then follow a vero influenced by Rogo. 363 = 177 + 7 + 177 + 2. Yet, the structure of the periods of the moon calendar says: 363 = (177 + 3) + (4 + 177 + 2) = 180 + 183. The marama glyph in Ca7-13 indicates 'a night', and its form is that of waxing moon (south of the equator). Ca7-10, though, has a waning moon. However, this fact cannot be used to prove that the turnaround occurs before Ca7-12, because in that glyph the sun has a prominent sign at bottom which presumably means 'here is the upside down apex'. We have also learned that full moon in the moon calendar comes after the half-way mark to Rogo. Maybe the 8 periods of the moon calendar are doubles, i.e. the 4th period corresponds to the 8th kuhane station (8 * 29.5 = 236). Not until then comes the 'back side'. 13 * 20 = 260 could mean we should investigate glyph number 363 - 260 = 103 (alternatively glyph number 363 + 260 = 623):
260 + 380 = 640 = 32 * 20. The other alternative - with Rogo at the beginning of 260 days (or at least glyphs) - is more convincing.
At Cb10-22 Metoro said kua vero. Then follows glyph line Cb11. In Cb10-19 we recognize Cb12-12:
But in Cb10-19 the neck of the bird is broken. By adding 63 to 252 (at Cb10-22), we reach 315. Likewise, if we add 63 (this time not 64) to 252 (counted from Cb8-30) at Gb1-22 we will have 315:
The strange Gb1-21 is more at is proper place this way. |
