The
Marquesans are the only

until they arrived at the
Marquesan Islands. They call
themselves te Take,
'the Take nation'.

Take, Tuvaluan for
the Black Noddy (Anous
Minutes). The specific
epithet taketake is
Māori for long established,

it being

The glyph number at Betelgeuze in line Cb3
is 392 + 62 = 454 and not 453 (= 88
+ 365), which can be explained
away from the inequality 365 < 365¼.
We should add 177
calendar day glyphs to Cb3-12
in order to reach the time when Hun-Nal-Ye

... But Hun-Nal-Ye had
entered the Tree in 5 February (36) and not
in 1 April (91), which fact has to be explained.
The difference between 91 and 36 equals 55
and this number coincides with the right ascension day
(at the time of rongorongo) of Tau-ono
(*55) ...
MARCH 12, i.e. the day which
corresponded to - at the time when
Hyadum II rose with the Sun at
0h - the '6 stones' at the Sun with the
Full Moon in the night at the Heart of the Serpent,
would 6 right ascension days earlier
have been rising with the Sun in 6 March (125) = 135 (May 15) -
10.
In Roman times Tau-ono had risen
with the Sun in day 108 (= 540 / 5) =
'April 18 when the Full Moon had been at
the opposite side of the sky in day 210
('October 17).
... On the last day, they issue forth to
battle in martial array. Says
Grimnismal (23): 'Five hundred gates
and forty more - are in the mighty
building of Walhalla - eight hundred
'Einherier' come out of each one gate -
on the time they go out on defence
against the Wolf.' That makes 432,000 in
all, a number of significance from of
old. This number must have had a very
ancient meaning, for it is also the
number of syllables in the Rigveda.
But it goes back to the basic figure
10,800, the number of stanzas in the
Rigveda (40 syllables to a stanza)
which, together with 108, occurs
insistently in Indian tradition, 10,800
is also the number which has been given
by Heraclitus for the duration of the
Aiōn, according to Censorinus (De die
natali, 18), whereas Berossos made
the Babylonian Great Year to last
432,000 years. Again, 10,800 is the
number of bricks of the Indian
fire-altar (Agnicayana)
...
Shall one add Angkor to the list? It has
five gates, and to each of them leads a
road, bridging over that water ditch
which surrounds the whole place. Each of
these roads is bordered by a row of huge
stone figures, 108 per avenue, 54 on
each side, altogether 540 statues of
Deva and Asura, and each row carries a
huge Naga serpent with nine heads. Only,
they do not 'carry' that serpent, they
are shown to 'pull' it, which indicates
that these 540 statues are churning the
Milky Ocean, represented (poorly,
indeed) by the water ditch, using Mount
Mandara as a churning staff, and Vasuki,
the prince of the Nagas, as their
drilling rope ...
The 'incomparably mighty churn' of the
Sea of Milk, as described in the
Mahabharata and Ramayana. The
heads of the deities on the right are

characteristics. They stand for the same

Seth is the oldest representative,

...
And 6 March (125) - 5 February (36) =
89, a number which equals 173
(Ga7-4) - 84 (the day number of the
Julian spring equinox), perhaps meaning we should not count from 1
January but rather from the Julian equinox. -
when the forces of winter and the forces
of summer were equal.
I.e.,
5 February = 5 February (36) + 365 -
84 = 401 - 84 = 317 = 314 + 3 (Asura?) =
320 - 3 (Deva?). At Alphard there were
debates - arguments for and against:

All Hearts' Day |

... 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 ... |
