300. Pythagoras spent 27 days in the cave of Rhea - corresponding to the Egyptian Nut, the night sky - and the Explorers spent 27 days in Oromanga:

... As has already been mentioned, the Delphians worshipped Dionysus once a year as the new-born child, Liknites, 'the Child in the Harvest Basket', which was a shovel-shaped basket of rush and osier used as a harvest basket, a cradle, a manger, and a winnowing-fan for tossing the grain up into the air against the wind, to separate it from the chaff. The worship of the Divine Child was established in Minoan Crete, its most famous early home in Europe. In 1903, on the site of the temple of Dictaean Zeues - the Zeus who was yearly born in Rhea's cave at Dicte near Cnossos, where Pythagoras spent 'thrice nine hallowed days' [27] of his initiation - was found a Greek hymn which seems to preserve the original Minoan formula in which the gypsum-powdered, sword-dancing Curetes, or tutors, saluted the Child at his birthday feast. In it he is hailed as 'the Cronian one' who comes yearly to Dicte mounted on a sow and escorted by a spirit-throng, and begged for peace and plenty as a reward for their joyful leaps ...

3 * 9 = 27 = 3 * 3 * 3 = 91 - 4 * 4 * 4 = 216 / 8 = 5 * 5 * 5 - 152 (Te Maro 1).

27 + 91 = 118 = 4 * 29½ = 27 + 27 + 64.

27 + 125 = 152 (Te Maro 1) = 6 * 6 * 6 - 64 = 111 (Vaitu Nui 25) + 41.

... [E:17] On the twenty-fifth day of the first month (Vaitu Nui), Ira and Makoi set sail; on the first day of June ('Maro'), the bow of Ira's canoe appeared on the distant horizon, came closer and closer on its course, and sailed along, and finally (one) could see the (new home) land ...

... [E:27] When he (i.e., Ira) saw that the beach was white and clean, he said, 'Hey, you! Here is the place where the king can live!' The stayed there and surveyed the plain with great care. Ira knew with certainty that it was very good. He named the bay 'Hanga Moria One' and the plain 'Oromanga'. They all sat down and rested, when suddenly they saw that a turtle had reached the shore and had crawled up on the beach. He [Ira] looked at it and said, 'Hey, you! The turtle has come on land!' He said, 'Let's go! Let's go back to the shore.' They all went to pick up the turtle. Ira was the first one to try to lift the turtle - but she didn't move. Then Raparenga said, 'You do not have the necessary ability. Get out of my way so that I can have a try!' Raparenga stepped up and tried to lift the turtle - but Raparenga could not move her. Now you spoke, Kuukuu: 'You don't have the necessary ability, but I shall move this turtle. Get out of my way!' Kuukuu stepped up, picked up the turtle, using all his strength. After he had lifted the turtle a little bit, he pushed her up farther. No sooner had he pushed her up and lifted her completely off the ground when she struck Kuukuu with one fin. She struck downward and broke Kuukuu's spine.The turtle got up, went back into the (sea) water, and swam away.

All the kinsmen spoke to you (i.e. Kuukuu): 'Even you did not prevail against the turtle!' They put the injured Kuukuu on a stretcher and carried him inland. They prepared a soft bed for him in the cave and let him rest there. They stayed there, rested, and lamented the severely injured Kuukuu. Kuukuu said, 'Promise me, my friends, that you will not abandon me!' They all replied, 'We could never abandon you!' They stayed there twenty-seven days in Oromanga. Everytime Kuukuu asked, 'Where are you, friends?' they immediately replied in one voice, 'Here we are!' They all sat down and thought. They had an idea and Ira spoke, 'Hey, you! Bring the round stones (from the shore) and pile them into six heaps of stones!' One of the youths said to Ira, 'Why do we want heaps of stone?' Ira replied, 'So that we can all ask the stones to do something.' They took (the material) for the stone heaps (pipi horeko) and piled up six heaps of stone at the outer edge of the cave. Then they all said to the stone heaps, 'Whenever he calls, whenever he calls for us, let your voices rush (to him) instead of the six (of us) (i.e., the six stone heaps are supposed to be substitutes for the youths). They all drew back to profit (from the deception) (? ki honui) and listened. A short while later, Kuukuu called. As soon as he had asked, 'Where are you?' the voices of the stone heaps replied, 'Here we are!' All (the youths) said, 'Hey, you! That was well done!'.  He (i.e., Ira) said, 'Let's go! We shall go to Papa O Pea'. They all got up and moved on. On the twentieth day of the month of August ('Hora Iti') they went to Papa O Pea. They all went and came to Papa O Pea, looked around in Papa O Pea, and gave the name 'Papa O Pea A Hau Maka'. They stayed five days in Papa O Pea ...

... But in the fullness of time an obscure instinct led the eldest of them towards the anthill which had been occupied by the Nummo. He wore on his head a head-dress and to protect him from the sun, the wooden bowl he used for his food. He put his two feet into the opening of the anthill, that is of the earth's womb, and sank in slowly as if for a parturition a tergo. The whole of him thus entered into the earth, and his head itself disappeared. But he left on the ground, as evidence of his passage into that world, the bowl which had caught on the edges of the opening. All that remained on the anthill was the round wooden bowl, still bearing traces of the food and the finger-prints of its vanished owner, symbol of his body and of his human nature, as, in the animal world, is the skin which a reptile has shed ...

The incident with the turtle coming up on land and breaking the back of poor Kuukuu did not - as could have been expected - take place in the Bay of Turtles (Hanga Hoonu) but later, when they had reached Hanga Moria One. Possibly this was a trick to force the reader to pay attention. They stayed for 5 days in Hanga Hoonu: and for 5 days in Papa O Pea, i.e. 5 + 27 + 5 = 37 right ascension days could have alluded to the precessional distance from the time of Gregory XIII down to the time when Bharani would have been at 0h.

Although according to Allen this star was plural: '... β ... was one of Al Tizini's Al Sharāsīf, the Ribs, - i.e. of the Hydra, - and the first of the set.' Adam had, as I remember it, another wife before Eve, viz. Lilith ...

... Dante kept to the tradition of the whirlpool as a significant end for great figures, even if here it comes ordained by Providence. Ulysses has sailed in his 'mad venture' beyond the limits of the world, and once he has crossed the ocean he sees a mountain looming far away, 'hazy with the distance, and so high I had never seen any.' It is the Mount of Purgatory, forbidden to mortals. 'We rejoiced, and soon it turned to tears, for from the new land a whirl was born, which smote our ship from the side. Three times it caused it to revolve with all the waters, on the forth to lift its stern on high, and the prow to go down, as Someone willed, until the sea had closed over us.' The 'many thoughted' Ulysses is on his way to immortality, even if it has to be Hell. The engulfing whirlpool belongs to the stock-in-trade of ancient fable. It appears in the Odyssey as Charybdis in the straits of Messina - and again, in other cultures, in the Indian Ocean and in the Pacific. It is found there too, curiously enough, with the overhanging fig tree to whose boughs the hero can cling as the ship goes down, whether it be Satyavrata in India, or Kae in Tonga ...

... There were 80 days from Zosma (the girdle of the Lion) and Coxa (his hips) to Antares. I.e., the distance from "July 27 (208) to 288 ("October 15, Tagaroa Uri 15) corresponded to the distance from January 1 to 0h (the Gregorian equinox). However, according to Manuscript E the Sun king left his old homeland in Hora Nui 2, which should have corresponded to "September 2 rather than to "July 27 (Anakena 27).

... Hotu's canoe sailed from Maori to Te Pito O Te Kainga. It sailed on the second day of September (hora nui) ... 

245 ("September 2) - 208 ("July 27) = 37 days = 41 - 4, i.e. according to the Gregorian calendar the Sun would reach °September 2 (245) when the precessional distance down to the time of Bharani was *41 - 4 = 37 days. Manuscript E seems here to have documented that the Sun calendar (the Gregorian calendar) should be used only up to Zosma and Coxa. Or rather that the Gregorian calendar was used in Hiva.

... The dream soul came to Rangi Meamea and looked around searchingly. The dream soul spoke: 'Here at last is level land where the king can live.' She named the place Rangi Meamea A Hau Maka O Hiva. The mountain she named Peke Tau O Hiti A Hau Maka O Hiva. The dream soul moved along a curve from Peke Tau O Hiti to the mountain Hau Epa [Maunga Auhepa], which she named Maunga Hau Epa A Hau Maka O Hiva.

The dream soul went to the other side of the mountain Hau Epa. As soon as the dream soul looked around, she saw the sand (beach), which was very white and light.

She remained there and explored everything. After she had looked around carefully, the dream soul of Hau Maka said, 'Ah! This is the place that will serve as a residence for the king. She named the place Oromanga A Hau Maka O Hiva and also named the neighboring bay Hanga Moria One A Hau Maka O Hiva.

... Again they went on and reached Hanga Hoonu. They saw it, looked around, and gave the name 'Hanga Hoonu A Hau Maka'. On the same day, when they had reached the Bay of Turtles, they made camp and rested. They all saw the fish that were there, that were present in large numbers - Ah! Then they all went into the water, moved toward the shore, and threw the fish (with their hands) onto the dry land. There were great numbers (? ka-mea-ro) of fish. There were tutuhi, paparava, and tahe mata pukupuku. Those were the three kinds of fish. After they had thrown the fish on the beach, Ira said, 'Make a fire and prepare the fish!' When he saw that there was no fire, Ira said, 'One of you go and bring the fire from Hanga Te Pau!' One of the young men went to the fire, took the fire and provisions (from the boat), turned around, and went back to Hanga Hoonu. When he arrived there, he sat down. They prepared the fish in the fire on the flat rocks, cooked them, and ate until they were completely satisfied. Then they gave the name 'The rock, where (the fish) were prepared in the fire with makoi (fruit of Thespesia populnea?) belongs to Ira' (Te Papa Tunu Makoi A Ira). They remained in Hanga Hoonu for five days ...

There was no fire and therefore one of the youngsters had to go back in time-space to their ship (left in Hanga Te Pau) in order to fetch it. The kuhane flew but the Explorers went on the surface of the sea.

Last week I happened to perceive the likeness of the unique figure in Ga2-29 (→ 229) in a TV program on art from the Netherlands - the 'Lowlands' (as if referring to islands in the South Sea):

A number of these forceful wind mills had been used to reclaim land from the sea, which seems to be exactly what happened when the Explorers had landed - putting names everywhere. And creating (lifting up) Land where there had been Sea surely was a feat 'next in greatness to the separation of the Sky and Earth'.

... Had the brothers done as Maui told them it would have lain smooth and flat, an example to the world of what good land should be. But as soon as the sun rose above the horizon the writhing fish of Maui became solid underfoot, and could not be smoothed out again. This act of Maui's, that gave our people the land on which we live, was an event next in greatness to the separation of the Sky and Earth ...

And as it so happens it was the Dutch who gave the name Easter Island:

... The first of all foreign visitors on Easter Island was the Dutch admiral Jacob Roggeveen., who approached the island in the evening twilight of Easter Sunday, 1722. As the sun rose above the sea next morning the Dutchmen brought their ships close inshore and observed a mixed crowd of fair-skinned and dark-skinned people who had lit fires before some enormous statues standing in a row. The people ashore were squatting in front of the statues, with their heads bent while they alternatively raised and lowered their arms. When the sun rose they prostrated themselves on the ground facing the sunrise, their fires still flickering before the stone colossi. The statues were even then so old and eroded that Roggeveen could with his bare fingers break pieces away from the decomposed surface, wherefore he concluded that the giant figures were simply molded from clay and soil mixed with pebbles. The Dutchmen left the island after a single day's visit ...

... And so they waited there in the darkness at the place where the sun rises. At length the day dawned, a chilly grey at first, then flaming red. And the sun came up from his pit, suspecting nothing. His fire spread over the mountains, and the sea was all glittering. He was there, the great sun himself, to be seen by the brothers more closely than any man had ever seen him. He rose out of the pit until his head was through the noose, and then his shoulders. Then Maui shouted, and the ropes were pulled, the noose ran taut ...

He went toward the sheer face of the rocks (titi o te opata), was astonished (aaa), came up to the middle (of the outer rim of the crater), and stood at the very edge.

... Midsummer is the flowering season of the oak, which is the tree of endurance and triumph, and like the ash is said to 'court the lightning flash'. Its roots are believed to extend as deep underground as its branches rise in the air - Virgil mentions this - which makes it emblematic of a god whose law runs both in Heaven and in the Underworld ... The month, which takes its name from Juppiter the oak-god, begins on June 10th and ends of July 7th. Midway comes St. John's Day, June 24th, the day on which the oak-king was sacrificially burned alive. The Celtic year was divided into two halves with the second half beginning in July, apparently after a seven-day wake, or funeral feast, in the oak-king's honour ...

... He got up, the path went uphill, and he came (back) to the house. It was dark when he reached the house. When he came to the yam plantation of Kuukuu, he sat down. Night was falling. Ira asked Makoi the following question: 'How did you fare when you wandered, when you went searching, when you found yourself on the path of the dream soul of the father?' Makoi replied, 'There are indeed all those places. I did not forget them at all (? kai viri kai viri) when I saw them (text corrected, i-ui-nei). I alone saw no fewer than four of my [sic!] places, and I returned here only because night was falling.' Then Ira spoke again: 'How did you name them, last-born?'  Makoi replied, 'This is what happened, this is how I gave the names. I wrote (ta) Te Manavai A Hau Maka on the surface of a banana leaf (kaka), and this is how I left it.' This is how Makoi remembered it. No sooner had he said this, when Ira gew angry and quarrelled with Makoi. He said the following (to him): 'You did not pay attention, last-born, and you did not give the (full) name. This is how it should be: the Manavai of Hau Maka of Hiva, in memory (mo aringa ora) of the father, of his dream soul.' Makoi replied, 'In Hiva the land belongs to him - this land here is mine, not his!' [E:21]

They stayed (there longer). On the fifth day of the month of July (Anakena) [day 186 + 41 = 227], they all got up, went downhill, went on, and reached Hanga Te Pau. They took their provisions with them, carrying them on their shoulders, went on, and reached Te Pou. They made camp and slept in Te Pou on the tenth of the month of July (Anakena). Then they all got up, carried their provision on their shoulders, went straight ahead, and followed the path of the dream soul of Hau Maka. They came to Hua Reva and said, This is Hua Reva A Hau Maka!

There were *111 (Anakena 10) - *81 (Hanga Te Pau) = 30 right ascension days from their Landfall to 10h, from Ga2-28 (58) to Ga4-5 (88). From Landfall to the 2nd time they reached Hanga Te Pau there were 186 - 161 = 25 days, suggesting Hanga Te Pau was a dark regenerativ time belonging to Saturn.

They came down from the height, from the mountain, from Pua Katiki, and reached Maunga Teatea. They looked around and gave the name Maunga Teatea A Hau Maka. They all descended, they all came down from Pua Katiki. They reached Mahatua, saw it, looked around, and gave the name Mahatua A Hau Maka. Then they went on and came to Taharoa. They saw it, looked around, and gave the name Taharoa A Hau Maka. Again they went on and reached Hanga Hoonu. They saw it, looked around, and gave the name Hanga Hoonu A Hau Maka ...

The dream soul of Hau Maka looked around. From Maunga Teatea she looked to Rangi Meamea (i.e., Ovahe). The dream soul spoke the following: 'There it is - ho! - the place - ho! - for the king - ho! - to live (there in the future), for this is (indeed) Rangi Meamea.' The dream soul descended and came to Mahatua. She named the place Mahatua A Hau Maka O Hiva. The dream soul continued to look around for a residence for the king. Having reached Taharoa she named the place Taharoa A Hau Maka O Hiva. The dream soul moved along and reached Hanga Hoonu. She named the place Hanga Hoonu A Hau Maka O Hiva ...
 
On the same day, when they had reached the Bay of Turtles, they made camp and rested. They all saw the fish that were there, that were present in large numbers - Ah! Then they all went into the water, moved toward the shore, and threw the fish (with their hands) onto the dry land. There were great numbers (? ka-mea-ro) of fish. There were tutuhi, paparava, and tahe mata pukupuku. Those were the three kinds of fish. After they had thrown the fish on the beach, Ira said, 'Make a fire and prepare the fish!' When he saw that there was no fire, Ira said, 'One of you go and bring the fire from Hanga Te Pau!' One of the young men went to the fire, took the fire and provisions (from the boat), turned around, and went back to Hanga Hoonu. When he arrived there, he sat down. They prepared the fish in the fire on the flat rocks, cooked them, and ate until they were completely satisfied. Then they gave the name 'The rock, where (the fish) were prepared in the fire with makoi (fruit of Thespesia populnea?) belongs to Ira' (Te Papa Tunu Makoi A Ira). They remained in Hanga Hoonu for five days ..

In Sweden the custom is to throw the Christmas Tree away 20 days after December 24 (358), which means in day 378 (→ the synodic cycle of Saturn). The name of this day (January 13) is Knut (knot, also: corner in a timbered building).

... When it was evident that the years lay ready to burst into life, everyone took hold of them, so that once more would start forth - once again - another (period of) fifty-two years. Then (the two cycles) might proceed to reach one hundred and four years. It was called 'One Age' when twice they had made the round, when twice the times of binding the years had come together. Behold what was done when the years were bound - when was reached the time when they were to draw the new fire, when now its count was accomplished. First they put out fires everywhere in the country round. And the statues, hewn in either wood or stone, kept in each man's home and regarded as gods, were all cast into the water. Also (were) these (cast away) - the pestles and the (three) hearth stones (upon which the cooking pots rested); and everywhere there was much sweeping - there was sweeping very clear. Rubbish was thrown out; none lay in any of the houses ...
