231. Once again. According to
the Mayas there were 542 days from the
last Creation to the time when Hun-Nal-Ye
entered (became) the sky (och ta chan).
I have copied from my preliminary glyph
type dictionary at toki: ... the Palenque scribes repeated Creation
again and described it as 'it was made
visible, the image at Lying-down-Sky, the
First-Three-Stone-Place'. Then we learned
that five hundred and forty-two days later
(1.9.2 in the Maya system), Hun-Nal-Ye
'entered or became the sky' (och ta chan).
This 'entering' event occurred on February
5, 3112 BC ...
February 5 is day 31 + 5 = 36 counted from
January 1, and 542 - 36 = 506 = 365 + 141

By mechanically applying this date 5 February
when reading the C text we will find it
could have referred to the time when Polaris was close to
the Full Moon at the last glyph on side a,
i.e. the person Hun-Nal-Ye could have
been Ursa

After the great
flood had at long
last receded, Raven
had gorged himself
on the delicacies
left by the receding
water, so for once,
perhaps the first
time in his life, he
wasn't hungry. But
his other appetites,
his curiosity and
the unquenchable
itch to meddle and
provoke things, to
play tricks on the
world and its
creatures, these
remained
unsatisfied. Raven
gazed up and down
the beach. It was
pretty, but
lifeless. There was
no one about to
upset, or play
tricks upon. Raven
sighed. He crossed
his wings behind him
and strutted up and
down the sand, his
shiny head cocked,
his sharp eyes and
ears alert for any
unusual sight or
sound. The mountains
and the sea, the sky
now ablaze with the
sun by day and the
moon and stars he
had placed there, it
was all pretty, but
lifeless. Finally
Raven cried out to
the empty sky with a
loud exasperated
cry. And before the
echoes of his cry
faded from the
shore, he heard a
muffled squeak. He
looked up and down
the beach for its
source and saw
nothing. He strutted
back and and forth,
once, twice, three
times and still saw
nothing. Then he
spied a flash of
white in the sand.
There, half buried
in the sand was a
giant clamshell. As
his shadow fell upon
it, he heard another
muffled squeak.
Peering down into
the opening between
the halves of the
shell, he saw it was
full of tiny
creatures, cowering
in fear at his
shadow ... |

Ecclesiastically,
the equinox is
reckoned to be on 21
March (even though
the equinox occurs,
astronomically
speaking, on 20
March in most years)
...
... When the Pope
rearranged the day
for spring equinox
from number 84
('March 25) to
number 80 (ºMarch
21) the earlier
Julian structure was
buried, was covered
up (puo). At
the same time the
Pope deliberately
avoided to correct
the flow of Julian
calendar days for
what he may have
regarded as 4
unneccesary leap
days prior to the
Council of Nicaea.
Thus his balance
sheet for days was
in order. The day
numbers counted from
the equinox were
increased with 4 and
this was equal to
allowing the 4
'unneccessary' leap
days to remain in
place. But he had
moved spring equinox
to a position which
was 4 days too early
compared to the
ancient model

The leap day was
introduced as part
of the Julian
reform. The day
following the
Terminalia (February
23) was doubled,
forming the 'bis
sextum -
literally 'double
sixth', since
February 24 was 'the
sixth day before the
Kalends of March'
using Roman
inclusive counting
(March 1 was the
'first day').
Although exceptions
exist, the first day
of the bis sextum
(February 24) was
usually regarded as
the intercalated or
'bissextile' day
since the third
century. February 29
came to be regarded
as the leap day when
the Roman system of
numbering days was
replaced by
sequential numbering
in the late Middle
Ages ... |

With each glyph
counted as a right ascension day
the last day before turning the
tablet around should correspond
to day number 392 counted from
September 20 (263, *183) / March
21 (80, *0). Which means: *183 /
*0 + *392 - *366 = *575 / *392 -
*366 = *209 / *26 (Polaris at
the Full Moon).
I then added
dates according to various earlier
time frames in order to
visualize what, according to
simple extrapolations, would
have been seen in for instance
Roman times (*27 right ascension
days earlier than my assumed
time frame for rongorongo), i.e. when in 'February
23 (54) the Sun would have risen
together with Algenib Pegasi and
the Full Moon would have been at
the Root of the Tail of Ursa
Major in day 264 - 27 = 237 =
'July 25 = 54 + 183. The names
Terminalia and Megrez were both indicating
the end:
... The leap day
was introduced as part of the
Julian reform. The day following
the Terminalia (February 23) was
doubled, forming the 'bis
sextum - literally 'double
sixth', since February 24 was
'the sixth day before the
Kalends of March' using Roman
inclusive counting (March 1 was
the 'first day') ...
My blackmarked set of dates at
the first week on side a of
the text corresponds to looking
back all the way down to the
time when Betelgeuze (*88) had
been at 0h. At day zero in the C
text we can find *183 (September
20) - *88 = *95 = day 175 counted from
1 January, which thus would have been
the position of the Sun in St
John's Day (25 June, 175) when the
Full Moon was at Christmas Eve (24
December, *95 + *183 = *278).
My blackmarked set of dates at
the first week when turning the
tablet around to side b, on the
other hand, are documenting the
right ascension days at the time
of rongorongo when counting
ahead without interruption from the beginning of the
text. But what then motivated
my coloured sequence of dates *70 right
ascension days earlier,
beginning with heliacal 5 February
at the last glyph on side a?
... Counting the
number of precessional days from
the year 3149 BC to my assumed
base line year for the
rongorongo texts we will find
Aldebaran at that time would
have risen heliacally
approximately (3149 + 1842) / 71
= 4991 / 71 = 70 right ascension
days earlier than in May 28
(148), viz. around day 148 - 70
= 78 (19 March). This was
neither at the Julian equinox
(25 March), nor at the Gregorian
equinox (21 March), nor at the
astronomically average date for
the equinox
(20 March). But from day 78 (19
March) to the beginning of a
half-year in 1 July (182) the
distance was 104 days. 78 = 3 *
26 and 182 = 7 * 26, which means
that in 3149 BC there had been 4
* 26 = 104 days from heliacal
Aldebaran to 1 July ...

... Thus the time
frame at the Fall of the False
Sun was 6 right ascension days
earlier than those *64
corresponding to the position of
Hyadum II at the time of
rongorongo ... 6 * 71 = 426 and
3149 BC - 426 = 2723 BC when,
according to a simple
extrapolation without regard for
the proper motions of the stars,
Al-debaran (The Follower of the
Pleiades) would have risen
heliacally together with the Sun
at the Julian equinox in MARCH
25 (84 = 7 * 12 = 6 * 14) ...
... 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 = 204

... |
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

'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'.
This particular 'sky-entering'
is not the one mentioned in the
Palenque text. It is the final
event that occurred in the
previous creation before the
universe was remade. Before the
sky could be raised and the real
sun revealed in all its
splendor, the Hero Twins had to
put the false sun, Itzam-Yeh,
in his place. If the date on
this pot corresponds to that
pre-Columbian event, as we
believe it does, then
Itzam-Yeh was defeated on
12.18.4.5.0 1 Ahaw 3
K'ank'in (May 28, 3149 BC).
After the new universe was
finally brought into existence,
First Father also entered the
sky by landing in the tree, just
as Itzam-Yeh did ...
