What can we read from the glyphs? Is it a description of day 79 from Friday or is it a description of day 8 * 29.5 from winter solstice?
A person sitting and eating means 'growth'. That is OK up to day 236 but not longer. A rising fish at day 237 seems strange. Only if we were certain it was the moon could it perhaps be acceptable. The sitting one is fat, he has eaten enough - day 236 suits him well. Tagata at Ha1-46 is at left, and at right is Y with hua - easily understood as 'noon' in the past and autumn in front. The rising fish ought to be the moon. The glyph has -48 as if a new season was about to begin - cfr Hb9-48. Ha1 is the 4th glyph line from Hb9. Day 79 should be thought of as day 64 + 15, because we know there are 64 days beginning with Friday. But 15 is the full moon night, which could explain the fat but still eating person. But then Ha1-48 would show a descending fish. This alternative is not acceptable. We should also take a quick look at glyphs 236 - 237 counted from Hb3-7:
Hb3-6 is glyph number 99 + 6 = 105 from Hb1-1. 105 + 236 = 341 = 308 + 33 will be at Hb7-33:
These results connect with one of the conclusions at honui:
Hb7-34 is glyph number 990 counted from Ha1-1, i.e. it represents the last 3rd of day number 330. But tagata rere at Hb3-7 is glyph number 754 equal to the first 3rd of day number 251, which explains why honu is in the center of day 236 counted from Hb3-7 (instead of at the beginning of the day as in day 330 counted from Ha1-1). The first glyph in Friday (Hb9-48) is glyph number 1108 = the first glyph in day number 370 counted from Ha1-1. A break in time must come at winter solstice. The 354-glyph long sequence beginning with tagata rere at Hb3-7 must be in harmony with what can be deduced from the pattern of glyphs. Rogo has no head in Hb7-32, somebody else is ruling for a short while. It is a dark chaotic time outside the regular calendar. A mock king seems to be ruling. According to G old sun is dying with day number 236, because winter solstice comes 64 days before those 236 days are beginning to be counted. And 236 + 64 = 300. We should therefore look for a preceding koti glyph, and only one such is reasonable:
If we count glyphs from Ha1-1 (not from Ha1-4), and equate 3 glyphs with 1 day, koti will be the central glyph in day 314:
And Rogo at Hb6-45 is unharmed. Counted from Friday (Hb9-48) the day number will be 63 + 316 = 379. Counted from Ha1-4 it will be day 315 (= 5 * 63). 379 is a prime number, 1 less than 20 * 19 = 380.
Puo has a honu with legs at right (in day 384 counted from Friday) - he has begun to move again. Koti at Hb6-39 seems to be connected with the end of the solar year (at day 377 counted from Friday) one week earlier. 3 * 77 (in day 377) = 231 = the first glyph on side b of G. 37 * 7 = 259 (one less than 260). The distance between Rogo and the 'mock king' is 40 glyphs:
If the mock king lives to day 400, then he will have a week (400 - 393). 13 dark days + 7 with the mock king = 20. There is no koti glyph between Hb6-45 and Hb7-32. Sun has already left. |
