23 days for the circuit of Lono on Hawaii at the other

... In China, with Capricornus,
Pisces, and a part of Sagittarius,
it [Aquarius] constituted the early
Serpent, or Turtle, Tien Yuen;
and later was known as Hiuen Ying,
the Dark Warrior and Hero, or Darkly
Flourishing One, the Hiuen Wu,
or Hiuen Heaou, of the Han
dynasty, which Dupuis gave as
Hiven Mao. It was a symbol of
the emperor Tchoun Hin, in
whose reign was a great deluge; but
after the Jesuits came in it became
Paou Ping, the Precious Vase.
It contained three of the sieu, and
headed the list of zodiac signs as
the Rat, which in the far
East was the ideograph for 'water',
and still so remains in the almanacs
of Central Asia, Cochin China, and
Japan ... |
... On February 9 the Chorti Ah
K'in, 'diviners', begin the
agricultural year. Both the 260-day
cycle and the solar year are used in
setting dates for religious and
agricultural ceremonies, especially
when those rituals fall at the same
time in both calendars. The ceremony
begins when the diviners go to a
sacred spring where they choose five
stones with the proper shape and
color. These stones will mark the
five positions of the sacred
cosmogram created by the ritual.
When the stones are brought back to
the ceremonial house, two diviners
start the ritual by placing the
stones on a table in a careful
pattern that reproduces the
schematic of the universe. At the
same time, helpers under the table
replace last year's diagram with the
new one. They believe that by
placing the cosmic diagram under the
base of God at the center of the
world they demonstrate that God
dominates the universe.
The priests place the stones in a
very particular order. First the
stone that corresponds to the sun in
the eastern, sunrise position of
summer solstice is set down; then
the stone corresponding to the
western, sunset position of the same
solstice. This is followed by stones
representing the western, sunset
position of the winter solstice,
then its eastern, sunrise position.
Together these four stones form a
square. They sit at the four corners
of the square just as we saw in the
Creation story from the Classic
period and in the Popol Vuh.
Finally, the center stone is placed
to form the ancient five-point sign
modern researchers called the
quincunx

The day number for August 13 (225 = 15 * 15)
could be expressed as the difference between 20 lunar
synodic months (20 * 29½ = 590) and the standard Sun year (= 590 -
225). Or as the difference between 590 (20 * 29½) and 354
(12 * 29½) = 236 = 225 + 11.
The reversed manu rere at Ukdah /
Bunda is the only such example in the whole corpus of
rongorongo texts, with the possible exception of less clear
cases such as:

Although I2-79 has to be noticed (perhaps
expressing the idea of how the back side generates the
front side).
From the first 3-stone place to the
time when Hun-Nal-Ye became the sky there
were 542 days (= 365 + 177). I.e. the First Father
had landed in the Ceiba tree 542 - 84 (= 225 - 141) = 458
(= 2 * 229) days counted from the creation of our present world.
August 13 (225 = 8 * 29½ - 11) + 365 + 100 = 325
(November 21). This date should come 100 days later
in the text. Or 365 - 100 = 265 days earlier:

In three magnificent texts at the site of
Koba, scribes recorded it as one of the
largest finite numbers we humans have ever
written. According to these inscriptions, our
world was created on the day 4 Ahaw 8 Kumk'u.
On this day all the cycles of the Maya calendar
above twenty years were set at thirteen - that
is to say, the cycles of 400 years, 8,000 years,
160,000 years, 32,000,000 years, and so on, all
the way up to a cycle number extending to twenty
places (2021 * 1360-day year). In
our calendar, this day fell on August 13, 3114
BC.

To
understand what this means, we need a little
scale. The thirteens in this huge number act
like the twelve in our cycles - the next hour
after twelve is one. Thirteen changed to one as
each of these cycles in the Maya calendar was
completed, therefore, we have the following

Each of the years, called a tun by the
Maya, in these dates is composed of 360 days. If
we return to the Creation date with its twenty
cycles set at thirteen, we see that it will take
41,943,040,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000 tuns for
the highest cycle to change from thirteen to one
