227. Once again. The
Spear (Te Vero) in April could
correspond to the blowgun weapon in the hands of
One-Ahaw when he broke the shining tooth
of Itzam-Yeh. At that ancient time the Fat Tail of Ursa
Major (Alioth, ε) was indeed a
disturbingly beautiful shining 'tooth' in
the wrong place:
...
This mythical bird is Itzam-Yeh,
Classic prototype of
Wuqub-Kaqix,
'Seven-Macaw', of Popol Vuh fame. In that
story, in the time before the sky was lifted
up to make room for the light, the
vainglorious
Seven-Macaw
imagined himself to be the sun. Offended by
his pride, the Hero Twins humbled him by
breaking his beautiful shining tooth with a
pellet from their blowgun. This pot shows
One-Ahaw aiming at the bird as he swoops
down to land in his tree. As Itzam-Yeh
lands on his perch, the text tells us he
is 'entering or becoming the sky'.
"... In 1838 Sir John Herschel thought it
[ε] the lucida of the seven stars, but in 1847
that η had taken its place ..." (Allen)
In 3149 BC the stars were positioned 70
right ascension days earlier than at the
time of rongorongo. Therefore η Andromedae would have risen with the Sun
in 91 (April 1) - 70 = 21 January (= 32 days
after the solstice). At that time of the
year Alioth would have
been close to the Full Moon in day 21 + 183

... At the beginning of 44 B.C.
- when Ceasar was still alive -
the Senate decided to raise
statues of him in all the
temples and to sacrifice to him
on his birthday in the month
Quintilis, which in honour
of him was renamed July. He was
raised to the status of a god
(among the other gods of the
state) under the name Jupiter
Julius. Marcus Antonius, who
this year was consul together
with Ceasar, became high priest
and responsible for the
ceremonies. In the middle of
February, at the time of the old
feast of Lupercalia [cfr

from goat-skin [februa],

I have
consistently tried to solve
the problem of half 365¼
not being an integer by
assigning 183 days from
the heliacal days to the nakshatra
nights. This leads to
October 1 (274) = 91 (April
1) + 183, with 22 / 7 (22
July) as a Sign of the
value of π
(approximately equal to the
result of the division 22 /
7) equal to the last day
in September (3 * 91 = 273)
- 70 (the precessional
distance down to the time
when Itzam-Yeh was
shot down) and with heliacal
Alioth in the following day,
in day 204 = 274 - 70.
On the other
hand, when counting to the
nakshatra night at the time
of his Fall (as in autumn)
my method leads to 71
precessional nights down
from the time of rongorongo to
the time when he 'fell on
his face'. 71 'happens to
be' equal to the number of
years necessary in order to
move the positions of the
fixed stars (in relation to
the cardinal points of the
Sun) with 1 right ascension
day ahead. 26000 (assumed length
of the precessional cycle) /
365¼ (the Julian length of a
year) = 71. Therefore the
last day in March at the
time of rongorongo
corresponded to day 365 + 90
- 71 = 384 (= 2 * 182) = 19
January at the time when the
shining tooth of Itzam-Yeh
was shot down.

... When the Pope Gregory XIII
updated the Julian calendar he
did not revise what had gone
wrong before 325 AD (when the
Council of Nicaea was held).
Thus the stars were still 3-4
days 'out of tune' compared to
the calendar ... the Gregorian
'canoe' was 'crooked'. His
calendar was not in perfect
alignment with the ancient star
structure. Because he had
avoided to adjust with the
effects of the precession
between the creation of the
Julian calendar and the Council
of Nicaea in 325 A.D. The Julian
equinox was in the 3rd month of
the year and in its 25th day
(3-25) ... |
Possibly these 6
added right ascension days - from the
time of the Fall to the time when
Hyadum II was at 0h - corresponded to those 6 glyphs
which came early in the C text both
on side a and on side b. I.e. the
creator of the C text could very
well have tried to illustrate the
fact that Ursa Major no longer ruled
the north pole:

The 'front side' of

days, i.e. at the time in the year when the Sun was like a
climbing bird (manu kake):

Several of the early
missionaries comment with a
fine sense of humor upon the
mistake the islanders made
in calling the cow when
first seen a bird. This is
the word which led the good
missionaries into the error
of their own ignorance.
Manu
is as wholesale in its
signification as our word
animal, it is generic. In
the paucity of brute
mammalia the first
missionaries found this
general term most frequently
used of birds, and it was
their and not a Polynesian
mistake to translate manu
into bird. In the material
here collected it will be
seen that the significations
animal and bird are widely
extended. In the Paumotu
insects are included; the
same is true of Mota,
where manu signifies
beetle as well as bird. Nor
is its applicability
restricted to earth and air;
it reaches into the sea as
well. Samoa uses i'amanu
(fish-animal) for the whale
...

"...
Assemani, however, said
that on the Cufic globe
it [Alioth] is Alhut,
the Fish, - one of the
many instances of
blundering that Ideler
attributed to him ...
(Allen)
... But here comes a
version of the same
story in North America.
It concerns the canoe
adventures of two
Cherokees at the mouth
of Suck Creek.
One of them was seized
by a fish, and never
seen again. The other
was taken round and
round to the very lowest
center of the whirlpool,
when another circle
caught him and bore him
outward ...
... The four bereaved
and searching
divinities, the two
mothers and their two
sons, were joined by a
fifth, the moon-god
Thoth (who appears
sometimes in the form of
an ibis-headed scribe,
at other times in the
form of a baboon), and
together they found all
of Osiris save his
genital member, which
had been swallowed by a
fish ...
...
Heracles is swallowed by
Tiamat, and disappears
for three days before
fighting his way out. So
also, according to a
Hebrew moral tale
apparently based on the
same icon, Jonah spent
three days in the
Whale's belly; and so
Marduk's representative,
the king of Babylon,
spent a period in demise
every year, during which
he was supposedly
fighting Tiamat ...
Marduk's or Perseus's
white solar horse here
becomes the reward for
Hesione's rescue.
Heracles's loss of hair
emphasizes his solar
character: a shearing of
the sacred king's locks
when the year came to an
end, typified the
reduction of his magical
strength, as in the
story of Samson ... When
he reappeared, he had no
more hair than an infant
...
...Then the big Fish did
swallow him, and he had
done acts worthy of
blame.
Had it not been that he
(repented and) glorified
Allah, He would
certainly have remained
inside the Fish till the
Day of Resurrection. -
Qur'an, chapter 37
(As-Saaffat), verse
139–144.
But We cast him forth on
the naked shore in a
state of sickness,
And We caused to grow,
over him, a spreading
plant of the gourd kind.
And We sent him (on a
mission) to a hundred
thousand (men) or more.
And they believed; so We
permitted them to enjoy
(their life) for a
while. - Qur'an, chapter
37 (As-Saaffat), verse
