90. Thus there were 16 days from 0h at Sirrah (*0) in March 21 (80) to Revati (ζ Piscium,*16) in April 6 (96), when Diadem (*198 = *16 + *183) would be at the nakshatra Full Moon. In April 6 (80 + 16 = 64 + 32 = 96 → 69 + 27) the so far hidden from view Sirrah would ideally return to visibility.

... In China, every year about the beginning of April, certain officials called Sz'hüen used of old to go about the country armed with wooden clappers. Their business was to summon the people and command them to put out every fire. This was the beginning of the season called Han-shih-tsieh, or 'eating of cold food'. For three days all household fires remained extinct as a preparation for the solemn renewal of the fire, which took place on the fifth or sixth day after the winter solstice [Sic!]. The ceremony was performed with great pomp by the same officials who procured the new fire from heaven by reflecting the sun's rays either from a metal mirror or from a crystal on dry moss. Fire thus obtained is called by the Chinese heavenly fire and its use is enjoined in sacrifices: whereas fire elicited by the friction of wood is termed by them earthly fire, and its use is prescribed for cooking and other domestic purposes ...

And Markab Pegasi (*349) was 16 days before Sirrah and therefore 32 days before Revati, which means we ought to look 16 days before Diadem in search for a star corresponding to Sirrah and 32 days before Diadem in search for a start corresponding to Markab Pegasi:

The Pegasus Square was *16 days, as measured from the pair Markab (α) and Scheat (β) to the pair Sirrah (α Andromedae) and Algenib (γ).

... 'From the time I was in your womb,' Maui went on, 'I have known the names of these children of yours. Listen,' he said as he pointed to his brothers in turn. 'You are Maui mua, you are Maui roto, you are Maui taha, and you are Maui pae. And as for me, I am Maui potiki, Maui-the-last-born. And here I am.' When he had finished, Taranga had to wipe her eyes because there were tears in them, and she said: 'You are indeed my lastborn son. You are the child of my old age. When I had you, no one knew, and what you have been saying is the truth. Well, as you were formed out of my topknot you can be Maui tikitiki a Taranga.' So that became his name, meaning Maui-formed-in-the-topknot-of-Taranga. And this is very strange, because women in those days did not have topknots. The topknot was the most sacred part of a person, and only men had them ...

So Maui tikitiki was not in the Square (or House) of Pegasus (with its 4 corners), but instead he was born inside the Topknot of Andromeda.

The Horse of Pegasus seems to represent the end of the previous generation with Andromeda then representing the new generation growing up from the inundated Field, possibly in form of rice plants. The 'Iron Dagger' had penetrated and planted.

... Heracles's rescue of Hesione, parallelled by Perseus's rescue of Andromeda ... is clearly derived from an icon common in Syria and Asia Minor: Marduk's conquest of the Sea-monster Tiamat, an emanation of the goddess Ishtar, whose power he annulled by chaining her to a rock. 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 ...

... It was 4 August 1968, and it was the feast day of Saint Dominic, patron of Santo Domingo Pueblo, southwest of Santa Fe. At one end of the hot, dusty plaza, a Dominican priest watched nervously as several hundred dancers arranged in two long rows pounded the earth with their moccasined feet as a mighty, collective prayer [ui] for rain, accompanied by the powerful baritone singing of a chorus and the beat of drums. As my family and I viewed this, the largest and in some ways the most impressive Native American public ceremony, a tiny cloud over the Jémez Mountains to the northwest got larger and larger, eventually filling up the sky; at last the storm broke, and the sky was crisscrossed by lightning and the pueblo resounded with peals of rolling thunder ...

... The life-force of the earth is water. God moulded the earth with water. Blood too he made out of water. Even in a stone there is this force, for there is moisture in everything. But if Nummo is water, it also produces copper. When the sky is overcast, the sun's rays may be seen materializing on the misty horizon. These rays, excreted by the spirits, are of copper and are light. They are water too, because they uphold the earth's moisture as it rises. The Pair excrete light, because they are also light ... 'The sun's rays,' he went on, 'are fire and the Nummo's excrement. It is the rays which give the sun its strength. It is the Nummo who gives life to this star, for the sun is in some sort a star.' It was difficult to get him to explain what he meant by this obscure statement. The Nazarene made more than one fruitless effort to understand this part of the cosmogony; he could not discover any chink or crack through which to apprehend its meaning. He was moreover confronted with identifications which no European, that is, no average rational European, could admit. He felt himself humiliated, though not disagreeably so, at finding that his informant regarded fire and water as complementary, and not as opposites. The rays of light and heat draw the water up, and also cause it to descend again in the form of rain. That is all to the good. The movement created by this coming and going is a good thing. By means of the rays the Nummo draws out, and gives back the life-force. This movement indeed makes life ...

The 'Field' in Ursa Major (Itzam-Yeh, 7-Macaw) was on the other side of the sky compared to the Square of Pegasus, with Dubhe (α) and  Merak (β) - the Parents - preceding the Twins δ (Megrez, *184) and γ (Phekda, *179), and where the back left leg was uplifted (like her tail):

When the North Pole changed its position, then the whole sky had to move (rangi maeva):

Maeva. T. 1. Move. Rangi-maeva = Moving Sky (name of a marae). 2. Greet, greeting. Henry.

Or should we not rather say that when the precession moved the star at spring equinox this would often force a corresponding change also of the star at the pole.

From Kochab (Kakkab, the Star)

 - which was located on the same side as Ursa Major) - to Polaris thus ought to imply that also Ursa Major would be dethroned, and that all the previous corresponding mythical expressions would have to be modified.

... 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 [104] 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 ...

October 31 (304 = 300 + 4) -16 = 284 + 4 = 288 (October 15) and this was where the Pope Gregory XIII launched his new calendar for the Sun and also the day when King Hotu A Matua with his Queen Ava Rei Pua arrived to Easter Island.

And the date for the toppling of Itzam-Yeh had been precisely determined by the Mayas to be May 28 (148, *68 → 84 + 23), and they had also stated when the new world order was born, when the new Foundation came about, viz. in August 13 (225, *145.4 → *104.0 + *41.4). The era of Bharani was at a precessional time depth of *41.4 = 225 - 104 days which was 23 days closer to modern times than the depth to the Golden Age of the Bull.

It is found in Hindu lists as Kalpeny, of unknown signification. On the Euphrates it was Kakkab Nammaχ, the Star of Mighty Destiny, that may have given origin to the title of the manzil [Al Sa'd al Su'ud], as well as to the astrologers' name for it - Fortuna Fortunarum. Al Firuzabadi of Khorasan, editor of Al Kāmūs, the great Arabic dictionary of the 14th century, called some of the smaller stars below this Al Au'ā, the plural of Nau', a Star, but without explanation, and they certainly are inconspicious ...
