Holy of Holies

 

Ancient Calendars of the Holy Bible

 

In Old Testament days, the Holy of Holies or the Most Holy Place was the most sacred part of a temple.  Levite priests were the only people allowed to enter the Holy of Holies during special worship times.  Priests burned incense and performed sacrificial ceremonies.  The famous Ark of the Covenant adorned this Most Holy Place.  The Holy of Holies was usually located toward the rear of the Tabernacle and surrounded by a thick curtain (Exodus Ch. 25-40).  Inside the Holy of Holies, a golden lamp stand, table, incense altar and bronze altar usually accompanied the Ark of the Covenant.  The table held the “Bread of the Presence”.  Sheets of gold covered the portable furnishings.  The calendar of Moses signifies ancient Judaism for those aspiring to be “priests forever on the order of Melchizedek” (Psalms 110:4).

 

A symbolic curtain for this version of the Holy of Holies is on the cover.  The "Bread of the Presence" in this case is the body of the church.  Portability of the Holy of Holies mixes early customs with the progress of technology.  Levite priests once learned and practiced the sacred rites of worship.  The reading audience inherits the responsibility.  The calendar information dispersed is equally holy.

 

Holy of Holies is the sequel to Ages of Adam.  A review of calendar material presented in Ages of Adam first introduces the separate Holy of Holies format.  Characters following the “begat” genealogy of Adam and Seth include Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared and Enoch.  Genesis used a lunar/solar calendar to measure the lifetime ages for the Antediluvian Patriarchs.  Six 800-year Generation Cycles plus the age of Enoch together spans some 5200-years of the Mayan Great Cycle.

 

Seven repetitions in the Jewish Calendar, the Ark of the Covenant and operant use of the 50 year Jubilee Cycle demonstrate supernatural powers.  Among the miracles noted is the wall collapse at Jericho (Joshua 6:3 - 16).  At dawn each morning, Joshua's people were encircled the city once a day for six days. “Men of war” were to lead a procession of seven priests blowing seven trumpets.  Behind the priests, the Ark of the Covenant followed.

 

The Lord commanded the people following the Ark not to make any word or noise with their voice.  Everyone shouted on the day Joshua selected.  On the seventh day, the promenade encompassed the walls of Jericho seven times in the same manner.  Joshua advised the people to shout on the seventh pass when they heard the ram's horn (shofar).  The huge walls of Jericho fell down flat.  The children of Israel captured the entire city.

 

The Jewish Calendar is the Lord's eternal domain.  Based on the simple idea of separating, dividing, and "coming between," the natural differences between light and darkness are measured by the Jewish Calendar.  Extending the Jewish Calendar beyond the first day (Genesis 1:4-5) adds greater time cycles.  Lunar weeks, then entire months, and finally the difference between lunar years and solar years become the foundational time keepers for Adam, Seth, Enos, Cainan, Jared, Enoch and the remaining lineage of Antediluvian (pre-flood) Patriarchs (forefathers).  The pattern of lunar/solar calendar order remained consistent for the Patriarchs.  The style of counting lunar/solar calendar years during Adam's time persisted to 50 year Jubilee Cycles for Moses.  Through the ancestry of these historical figures, and the the blessed line toward Jesus Christ (I Chronicles, Luke 3:23-38), the Jewish Calendar is the procedure to measure time.

 

The Jewish Calendar harmonizes with the supernatural acts of God.  Certain Jewish feasts and festivals common to Judaism and adapted by Christianity glorify the Lord.  Celebrations preserve the Testament of the Hebrews and the Holy Bible.  Since the beginning of recorded history, the Jewish Calendar has been in effect.  Minor changes, modifications and intercalations have caused slight variations in the Jewish lunar/solar calendar since earliest days of the Creation.  The concept of 19-year or 20-year lunar/solar calendar cycle branched many times over literally thousands of years.

 

The Jewish lunar/solar calendar indeed was the standard for Old Testament chronology.  The 19-year pattern is a convention based upon lunar moon months.  The society marking ages prior to the Deluge mixed l/s features later inherited by the Egyptian and Mayan calendar versions.  Mobile groups had practical requirements for a maternally linked lunar-side calendar.  Hunters and traveling bands looked up at night in order to learn the monthly progress.  A 20-year l/s cycle is a variation of the 19-year l/s cycle.  In contrast to the 19-year l/s pattern that required 209-intercalary-days, the 20-year l/s cycle approximates the difference between lunar and solar sides of the calendar to 210-days.  Almighty God of the early Israelites could easily be worshipped at appointed times by roving tribes.

 

Nomadic people face two distinct disadvantages with the 19-year l/s cycle calendar.  Decisions were necessary to calculate an exact month.  A reference such as sighting the new moon crescent can arguably vary over one, two or even three days.  The difficult task of keeping careful notes during 19-years certainly was problematic.  Unequal divisions of months and hence, years negate the possibility of extensive calendars.

 

Lunar/solar 20-year cycles suggest a fixed society with solar calendar worship directed toward a particular Baal or Seth god.  Both Semitic Baals and Egyptian Seths mutually shared masculine fertility roles involving the solar-side of l/s calendar recording.  The stable 20-year l/s calendar was easier to manage over extended periods and the logical alternative for longer calendar systems.  Fixed obelisks and sacred pillars localized patronage to a particular area.  The 20-year l/s cycle is a dominant sequence belonging to solar-side calculations and paternal worship.  Cosmology of the zodiac and astronomical physics appear embedded in Egyptian mythology.  Stories concerning Osirus and the sun-god Ra contain numeric remnants of calendar study.

 

Ages for the Antediluvian Patriarchs listed in Genesis incorporate the Mayan 400-year-Baktun-cycle and the 800-year Generation Cycle.  The calendar was long-standing for the intriguing culture that recorded ages prior to the Deluge.  Very ancient people were aware of supernatural tendencies reliant upon precise calendar times.  Names for individual deities symbolically linked to numbered times.  We access intangible, spiritual connotations by drilling deeply into the past.  Resources exist to satiate appetites for magic, both flagrant and overwhelming.

 

Ages of Adam combines calendar systems of the Jewish Calendar, Egyptian Calendar and the Sun Kingdoms’ Calendars of the Americas to develop the pinnacle publication in Holy Bible calendar science research.  Calendar tools encapsulate mathematical models and spiritual ideas.  Holy of Holies is the innermost temple sanctuary of the Lord.

 

 

Antediluvian First Calendar

 

Ancient calendars in the Holy Bible had lunar/solar calendar origins.  The work at http://www.timeemits.com develops tools from the three oldest known lunar/solar calendars: Jewish, Mayan and Egyptian.  My goal here is to provide an overview that connects the Mayan calendar with the earliest Bible calendar -- the Antediluvian Patriarchs.  Chapter 5 in Genesis lists the ages of the Antediluvian Patriarchs.  The “begat” family of Adam measured time with a lunar/solar calendar similar to the Mayan calendar.

 

The traditional Jewish lunar/solar calendar measures differences between the moon and sun to intercalate about 209-days over 19-years.  Some 7-months add to catch up the lunar-side with the solar-side of the Jewish calendar.  The Mayans adapted the same reasoning for a 20-year lunar/solar cycle and embedded the extra 210-days using a different method.  I hope to dispel some of the mystery and confusion surrounding the Mayan calendar.  Hyphens help to improve phrase clarity.

 

The Mayan 52-year Calendar Round accomplishes needed intercalary time with a dual year system.  The Mayan 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year was part of a 365-day-solar-year.  Alongside the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year, a 360-day-Tun-year kept track of civil functions.  The 360-day-Tun-year marked the approximate middle point between 12-lunar-months or 354-days, and the 365-day-Haab-solar-year.  Following the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year, 105-days more were included to finish the 365-day-Haab-solar-year.  Sister cultures such as the Inca and Aztec used an identical system of counting.  Inclusively, I call them the Sun Kingdoms’ Calendars, a name typically used to describe the Mesoamerican calendar style.

 

Mayan astronomer-priests were very good at calculating multiples of days and years.  Mayans purposely addressed a 360-day-Tun-civil-year with prefixes in order to lengthen the calendar.  Prefixes are the “Katun” that describes 20-Tun-years and the “Baktun”, meaning 400-Tun-years.  They multiplied the 20-year lunar/solar cycle by 20-years again, thus squaring time.  Multiples of lunar/solar 20-year cycles occur in the form of 20-year-Katun-cycles and 400-year-Baktun-cycles.  Mesoamerican chronologists accept the 400-year-Baktun-cycle was an integral part of the Mayan calendar system.

 

The 365-day-Haab-year and 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year combine to form the Sun Kingdoms' 52-year cycle or Calendar Round.  The 52-year chronological summit was the cornerstone of the dual calendar system.  A complete Calendar Round repeated after 18,980-days.  The Calendar Round 52-Tun-civil-years multiply by 360-days to produce 18,720-days.  Working like meshed gears, 72-Tzolken-sacred-years of 260-days each multiply to equal the same 18,720-days.  The last five special holidays are the Wayeb.  The Wayeb separately accrues every year to add the final 260-days in the Calendar Round.  One extra 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year adds to 72-sacred-years for 73-Tzolken-sacred-years.  Multiplying 73-Tzolken-sacred-years by 260-days per sacred-year gives the equivalent 18,980-days for a Calendar Round.  The 52-year Calendar Round equals 73-Tzolken-sacred-years and both equal 18,980-days.  The total 52-year Calendar Round is 18,980-days.  By this calendar system, only once in 52-years would any day of the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year coincide with any day of the 360-day-Tun-civil-year.  A complete 52-year Calendar Round would restart again the next dual sequence.  Names for gods and their particular meanings often varied across the cultures.  Calendar math remained the same.

 

We insert a fact from the Book of Enoch.  Some ancient Jewish sects were using a 364-day calendar year.  Information gained from the Dead Sea Scrolls and the three Book(s) of Enoch support the idea of numerical matching.  This concept says X-number of days numerically match the same X number of years.  A bridge forms between X-days and X-years, where X describes any number of days and years.  The Mayan 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle and the 105-year portion develop what I call “cascaded time”.

 

All lunar/solar calendars are the product of prevailing culture.  On the other side of the world, Mesopotamian scribes were recording Mayan calendar math in what we now call the Holy Bible.  They were doubling and dividing calendar time with astonishing accuracy.  The 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year numerically matches a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  A 365-day-Haab-solar-year numerically matches with 365-years in a Haab-solar-cycle.  The 360-day-Tun-year likewise matches a 360-year-Tun-cycle.

 

Genesis 5:3

"And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness,

after his image; and called his name Seth:" (KJV)

 

Early Bible writers simply divided the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle in half to get the 130-year age of Adam.  A few verses later, we have the principle calendar instrument of the Mayans, the 105-year age of Seth.  Lunar/solar calendars distinguish between lunar-side times and solar-side times.  The lunar/solar calendar effectively “time-split” 210-years into equal halves, a 105-year lunar-side time split and the opposite 105-year solar-side time split.  These lunar/solar calendar tools enable us to comprehend mentioned ages for the Antediluvian Patriarchs.

 

Genesis 5:6

"And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos:" (KJV)

 

The 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year divides for two halves, each with 130-days.  The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle also divides for two identical 130-year portions.  Regarding the 365-day-solar-year, 105-days remain and for the 365-year-solar-cycle, 105-years remain.

The calendar used to record ages for the Antediluvian Patriarchs includes two patterns of the 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  The next age bracket advances the lunar/solar calendar to the 800-year era.  Consider the time mentioned after the birth of Seth, until the death of Adam.

 

Genesis 5:4

"And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years:

and he begat sons and daughters:" (KJV)

 

Twice through the 400-year-Baktun-cycle is equal to 800-years.  In this respect, I develop suitable vocabulary, namely the 800-year Generation Cycle.  Twice the 400-year-Baktun-cycle measures one 800-year Generation Cycle.  Calendar references for the "begat" genealogy following Adam affix 800-year Generation Cycles in repeating succession to each named character.  From Adam through Jared, all Patriarchs include the 800-year Generation Cycle.  The Antediluvian Calendar cultivated spirituality of the planetary and star deities found woven into the oldest Mesopotamian cultures.

Lunar/solar calendars use nightly observation and any complete discussion about the Mayan calendar includes the 104-year Venus Round.  First accredited to appear in the Dresden Codex, Sun Kingdoms’ Calendars of the Americas exhibit observed practices according to the 104-year Venus Round.  Two 52-year Calendar Rounds are equal to one 104-year Venus Round.

 

The strongest pillar connecting the Mayan Calendar system to the aforementioned Antediluvian Calendar is the transit pathway and surviving mythology surrounding the planet Venus. Repetitive legends and astronomical principles were in place that associate five heliacal risings of Venus every 8-years in the Sun Kingdoms’ religion with the Egyptian god-star, Sirius.  The Dresden Codex Venus Table furnishes critical planetary facts regarding Venus.  Five pages of the Dresden Codex record heliacal risings for the planet Venus.  The famous Aztec mythological figurehead, Quetzalcoatl resurrects to assume his rightful place as the supreme deity.  He was the Feathered Serpent that revived the dried bones of the old dead by sprinkling his blood on them.  Quetzalcoatl or Venus was the morning star-god of vegetation and fertility.  Life, light and visibility oppose death, darkness and invisibility below the horizon.

 

Ancients observers noticed the relative positions of Earth, Venus and the Sun recur according to a schedule.  Venus orbits the sun 13 times during the period in which the earth orbits the sun 8 times.  Venus passes between the earth and the sun every 584-days or 5 times in 8 years.  Venus, in astronomical terms, completes five synodic periods in 8 years, or 5 evening and morning star circuits.  The synodic interval is the time between two successive conjunctions of a planet (Venus) with the sun.  Each synodic period lasts about 1.6 Earth years or 584-days.  The Sun Kingdom’s Calendars meticulously track five Venus cycles of 584-days each over 8-Haab-solar-year multiples of 365 days.  The true orbit of Venus around the sun is 225-days and should not be confused with Venus’ heliacal rising and observable behavior.  The Mayans watched Venus progress in this manner 13 times, which culminated with one 104-year Venus Round.

 

Observations involving the planet Venus allow deeper inspection of the records seen in chapter 5 of Genesis.  Early Israelite history mixes with content drawn from celestial deities.  Our Holy Bible draws a line connecting astronomy, astrology and calendar systems.  The sun, moon, planets and stars are natural timekeepers of the cosmos.

 

The Mayan version of Seth establishes that a 104-year Venus Round multiplies by a 365-day-Haab-solar-year to attain 37,960-days in the Venus Round.  Mesopotamian cultures altered these figures slightly.  Seth in Egyptian mythology is a male god similar to the Old Testament Baals.  The Biblical Astarte or Astaroth is the female fertility consort to the Babylonian Baal.  Standing stones symbolized Baal or Bel, and his alias names: Baalat, Molech or Marduk.  A bull frequently represents Baal/Seth.  Ishtar is the proper Babylonian name for the Canaanite goddess Astarte, Asherah or Astaroth.  Ishtar was associated with the planet Venus as the bright morning star.  Her Sumerian name is Inanna.  Later the Greeks would caller her Aphrodite and the Romans by the common name of today, Venus.  She equates to the Greek Europa and Isis, the female fertility goddess and consort to Osirius in Egyptian mythology.

 

Planet Venus was the bright morning star throughout the ancient world.  In Mesoamerica, Venus was a powerful male deity.  Kukulatin or Quetzalcoatl dominated the Mayan pantheon.  Mesopotamian religion, through all stages and phases, usually worshipped planet Venus in the feminine gender.  Lunar relationships between 19-year or 20-year lunar/solar cycles likely shifted patronage of the archetypal figure from masculine to feminine.  Transference to the female goddess occurs for couples supplanting the godhead or vise versa.  Ishtar/Inanna shared the Baal time control over 105-days of solar-side time split for any 20-year lunar/solar cycle.  Hence, 105-years of solar-side time split followed suit for any 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  The 104-year Venus Cycle naturally substantiates 105-years of solar-side time split when we engage the resurrection story.  Ishtar/Baal, Isis/Seth and the other examples are contingent upon the heliacal risings of Venus.  The Antediluvian Calendar, an artifact initiated from naked-eye human observation, stretches onward for hundreds and thousands of years.

 

We must remember those preserving the precious knowledge down through history.  Intrepid copyists traversed desert and mountain alongside brethren in the clan.  Librarians at Nineveh compiled and saved many cuneiform tablets.  Artists at ceremonial centers painstakingly carved the legacy into stone for all to see.  Tireless monks working in dimly lit medieval rooms spent their entire lives translating and revising their interpretations of sacred scripture.  Everyone agreed that to permit any errors would profane the sacred message they sought to protect.  Modern printing presses and computers are the medium of exchange today.

 

Most attempts at past world chronology backtrack in order to date the ancient past.  Since advances by the Roman Empire, the secular western world and most of Christendom uses a solar calendar.  Only in the last 50-years or so, have archeologists in South and Central America been able to decipher relevant calendar inscriptions.

 

A calendar system that arose in Mesopotamia at least 5000 years ago transfers to the new world by seafaring travelers.  The moon, sun, Sirius, Venus and even Jupiter were all key celestial players in this Antediluvian Calendar system.  The calendar was lunar/solar based and specific time cycles included 210-days of lunar/solar separation time during every 19-year or 20-year cycle.  They graduated lunar/solar reckoning to reach 400-years by squaring 20-years.  The Mayan calendar asserts a 400-year-Baktun-cycle today.  Early astronomers found that the planet Venus adhered to a visible 104-year cycle.

 

Numerical matching of X-days with X-years stems from a 364-day calendar year.  A 364-day calendar year was easier to implement, leaving one day every year open for numerically matching X-days with X-years.  Lunar/solar separation time became 210-years for every 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  Time splitting divides 210-years in two equal halves and attributes 105-years to the lunar-side and 105-years to the solar-side.  The Mayan Venus Round is incremented by matching 1-day and 1-year.  The Mayan 104-year Venus Round adapts from 105-years in Mesopotamia.  Seth’s 105-year age begets Enos to answer a 105-year solar-side time split and the Venus issue simultaneously.  Going further, two 400-year-Baktun-cycles add together to produce a repeating 800-year Generation Cycle.

 

The ages of Adam and Seth reveal a discovery that someday may change how archeologists address traditional chronology.  Calendar systems map world chronology according to different beginnings.  Some follow Jewish tradition and put the Creation date at 5,766 years ago or about 3,761 years B.C.E.  Others credit Archbishop Ussher with calculating in 1,701 A.D. that Creation took place in 4,004 B.C.E.  The Egyptian Calendar begins between 4,236 B.C.E. and 4,241 B.C.E., along with Egyptian mythology explaining the world's Creation.  Starting dates depend on star observation in Egypt, since that is the only way primal society had to mark calendar years.  Another plan estimates the starting Mayan Calendar date to be 3,113 B.C.E.  Shared calendar characteristics enable deeper inspection of prehistoric time reckoning.  Sacred texts and current science provide clues needed to reconstruct the oldest Biblical history.  Important traits gathered from past calendar time streams become braided together to obtain hybrid insight.  Three ancient calendar systems form the world's oldest trunk line of calendar science.  God used a lunar/solar calendar to write listed ages for the Antediluvian Patriarchs.  The family of Adam heralds new chronology from the earliest time.

 

I feel the need to recognize this material was the ancient religion.  Ideas and fixations worshipped eons ago give us broader historical appreciation.  Countless people lived to uphold paramount holidays prescribed by their calendar.  The Jewish calendar still appoints feasts and festivals in modern times.  Mesoamerican celebrations carry heritage that teaches visitors the ancient spirituality.  Babylonian astrology and astronomy give us an early view of scientific disciplines.  Egyptology continues to amaze everyone with spectacular finds.  Finally, the impact of the Holy Bible is far and ranging upon modern society.  Scholars and theologians have scoured these scriptures and written volumes.  I raise more questions than answers.

 

I look at the same Antediluvian ages in a different light.  The perspective offered by lunar/solar calendars imparts new interpretations.  Some help comes from published Sun Kingdoms’ calendar information.  Other pieces come from alternative sacred texts such as the Book of Enoch and Book of Jubilees.  I strive to maintain accepted terminology where applicable.  Keeping geographical lore and religious principles in mind, we are able to employ lunar/solar calendars that penetrate to the past extreme.  The Antediluvian Patriarchs provide historians with a calendar sequence lasting literally thousands of years.  Our task is to understand the system they once used.

 

Are you a pastor, educator or a student of the Holy Bible?  Timeemits.com seeks anointed people to review and contribute to the Ages of Adam ministry.  Ancient lunar/solar calendars like the Jewish and Mayan calendars provide the background to understanding early time.  Ancient calendars of the Holy Bible use differences between the moon and sun, numerical matching and a 364-day calendar year to describe X-number of days that match with X-number of years.  Ages of Adam is a free read at http://www.timeemits.com

Primary Ages of Adam and Seth

 

 

The primary age of Adam was 130-years old at the time of fathering Seth.  Figure 1 doubles 130-years to complete a Tzolken-sacred-cycle lasting 260-years.  Numerical matching likewise doubles 130-days to complete a 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year (Eqn 1 and Eqn. 2).  The diagram shows 130-days and 130-years that match with a single numerical term.  The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle parallels a 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.

 

The Mesoamerican calendar systems of the Mayan, Incan and Aztec empires employed the agricultural 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.  The 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year is the divinatory 260-day-sacred-year in the Mayan calendar.  Numerical matching reinforces the idea of X number of days that match with the same X number of years.  A 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year numerically matches with a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  The Mayan 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle extends the calendar to encompass far greater time cycles.

 

Numerical matching and other calendar tools develop from the Jewish, Egyptian and Mayan Calendars to supply hybrid understanding of remote ancient calendar systems.  Calendars of early culture imbue ideas of God separating, dividing and coming between essential factions of time.  The Jewish lunar/solar calendar segments time with holy intervals beginning with sunset transitions from day unto night, Sabbath Days and weekly lunar phases.

 

The pie graph of figure 1 shows the primary 130-year age of Adam in the blue upper right section dividing a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  Halving and doubling time was the popular lunar/solar calendar way to record more time.  Adam applies 260-days-and-years in a single numerical term.  Frequent use of X-days-and-years terminology enables us to comprehend the governing mindset.  The lunar/solar calendar involved for Adam’s family line records vast periods.

 

Seth is the first generation following Adam in the chronology of Genesis.  In the literal Hebrew, Seth means founder, or originator.  Seth is the baseline heir for the paternal chronology of Adam.  The primary 105-year age of Seth completes a 365-year-solar-cycle.  The 105-days and 105-years in the lower green portion is a single term that finishes impression of the 365-day-solar-year and 365-year-solar-cycle (Eqn. 3 and Eqn. 4).  A single numerical term matches the last 105-days-and-years in the lower portion of figure 1.  Seth, at the time of fathering Enos, has the same primary age of 105-years identified in figure 1.  The single numerical term 105-days-and-years, and the 260-day-and-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle, add for the solar 365-days-and-years.

 

The Jewish Calendar of the Bible utilizes a Metonic 19-year cycle that requires some 209-days of intercalation to keep the lunar-side of the calendar on track with the solar-side of the calendar.  Mayan and Egyptian calendars approximate an identical plan with 20-year cycles.  A 20-year lunar/solar cycle needs about 210-days of intercalary, lunar/solar separation time.  The lunar-side of l/s separation time halves 210-days to assign 105-days as feminine (Eqn. 5).  The contrasting solar-side of l/s separation time halves 210-days to assign 105-days as masculine (Eqn. 6).  Values of days and years are verbatim from the Bible.

800-Year Generation Cycles of Adam and Seth

 

The Mesoamerican Calendars of the Aztec, Inca and Maya cultures inclusively are the Sun Kingdoms’ Calendars for technical purposes of the works at timeemits.  South and Central American people also included many other subgroups such as Mixtec, Toltec and Izzapans.  Individual gods and names for varied widely across the Sun Kingdom pantheon.  Operations of the calendar tended to stay consistent throughout.  A 360-day-Tun-year and a 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year were the primary time keeping instruments.  The Sun Kingdoms’ Calendar expands with prolific adaptation of 360-year-Tun-cycles and 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycles.  Patterns of the Antediluvian Calendar recorded in Genesis 5 for the lineage following applies this reckoning for the primary age category.  Each character listed in the calendar chain has time until he fathers the son.  Hence, the primary age notes the first age recorded for each character.  All primary ages taken together form the primary age category.  For example, Genesis 5:3 tells us Adam lives 130-years until his son, Seth is born.  I call this time the primary 130-year age of Adam.

 

The begat genealogy following Adam lists a secondary age from the time of fathering the son, until the character’s death.  Adam lives for 800-years following the birth of Seth.  The secondary age category is total lunar/solar time, denoted here “l/s”, and includes all Patriarchs in successive order.  The original 19-year-l/s-cycle of the Jewish Calendar modifies to become a 20-year-l/s-cycle regarding the Mesoamerican Calendars.  Multiples of 20-year-l/s-cycles form the secondary age category.  Each year in the 20-year-l/s-cycle was a 360-day-Tun-year.  Mayan terminology employs the prefx “Ka” in the word Katun that describes one 20-year-l/s-Katun-cycle.  Twenty multiples of the 20-year-Katun-cycle permits the Mayan prefix “Bak” to describe a 400-year-l/s-Baktun-cycle (Eqn. 1).  Increments of 400-year-l/s-Baktun-cycles counted the secondary ages for all characters in the Antediluvian Calendar.

 

The next logical step to recording time was to double the 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  Abraham's covenant with the Lord relates to a 400-year span in Genesis 15:13 - 16, with literal Hebrew definitions arising from the presence of ancestry.  The next age bracket advances the l/s calendar to the 800-year era.  Twice the 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle measures the 800-year Generation Cycle (Eqn. 2). Calendar references for the "begat" genealogy following Adam affix 800-year Generation Cycles to each named character’s secondary age category.  Actions of doubling and halving time interval tools discovered from associated calendars yield a repeating order.  The procedure of God coming between and dividing time continues further lunar/solar separations.

 

Genesis 5:4

 

"And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years:

and he begat sons and daughters:"

 

Adam lived for 800-years in a full Generation Cycle following the birth of Seth.  The secondary 800-year age of Adam arises from two successive 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycles from the ancient Sun Kingdoms' Calendars.  The 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle holds the most significant position of the Long Count Initial Series or 5200-year Great Cycle.  Mesoamerican dating usually depends upon the Great Cycle with 13 different 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycles (Eqn. 3).  The secondary age category adds 400-year increments for each major l/s event.  This work applies the 800-year Generation Cycle to describe the time following the birth of Seth until the death of Adam.

 

Critical points in the primary age category coincide with 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle transitions.  The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle time splits, or halves to chronicle the primary 130-year age of Adam (Eqn. 4).  At this primary age category critical point, the 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle doubles to get 800-years in the secondary age of Adam.  Each 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle adds to the secondary age category “l/s” year total.  Additions that extend the length of the l/s calendar required changing the masculine solar-side of lunar/solar separation time.  Simply doubling the primary 130-year age of Adam would have resulted in the original 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  A different method needs to record the next layer of the calendar.

 

The scriptures chose to show the next masculine, solar-side of time projection as the primary 105-year age of Seth.  By doubling the 400-year-Baktun-cycle, we get the secondary 800-year Generation Cycle age of Adam.  The primary age of Adam halves a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  The secondary age doubles the 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle to achieve 800-years.  Two 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycles have elapsed.  Seth’s distinctive 105-year solar-side time split is half of the cumulative solar-side 210-years.  After Adam's 800-year secondary age, the complete 210-years of solar-side separation time divide in half for 105-years (Eqn. 5).  Numerical matching coins 105-days and 105-years in a 105-days-and-years single term to be the primary age of Seth.  Dividing the primary age 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle in half simultaneously begins the third 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle in the secondary age category.

 

Baktun cycles having 400-years increment the secondary age category and synchronize the primary ages.  Corresponding primary age category elements of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle interleave with solar-side time splits.  Adam’s first half of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle is followed by Seth’s first half of solar-side time split.  Secondary age 800-year Generation Cycles repeat for each Patriarch from Adam through Jared.

 

Ideas of God dividing and coming between lunar and solar separation times transfer to people with other ordained principles.  The mirror image of God was man.  Pharaohs and kingly leaders of the ancient world mediate between the heavenly realm in the afterlife and mortal humanity below.  God and man together conformed to notions of masculine, sun-side reckoning for lunar/solar time.  The sky-father concept carries forth by assigning a lesser deity rule to past monarchs.  Personal pronoun names and the generic literal meanings combine to explain characters such as Adam.  Early theology substitutes monarchs, deities and other character names for specific allotted times.

 

In literal Hebrew and English, the name of Adam applies in two ways.  The generic man exists in the mortal sense.  Adam also recognizes the personal pronoun name for a deified king patriarch type of character.  Working along these lines, synchronism between two types of years had to be developed.  First, there was the agricultural 260-day-Tzolken-sacred year.  Secondly, a midpoint 360-day type of year was halfway between lunar and solar years.  The 360-day midpoint length of year helped measure the time of God coming between and separating greater differences involved with lunar/solar calendars.

 

The 800-year Generation Cycle dominated the lineage following Adam.  Once the secondary 800-year age of Adam had completed to produce the primary 105-year age of Seth, another 800-year Generation Cycle adds to continue the pattern.  Through the genealogy following Adam, i.e. Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel and Jared, each secondary age incorporates an entire 800-year Generation Cycle.  Based on actual heavenly observations, this time had to pass to properly record later lunar/solar time splits found in the Holy Bible.

 

The method of lunar/solar calendar time recording begins to develop for the lineage of Antediluvian Patriarchs.  The 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle of the Mayan calendar counts 20 multiples of a 20-l/s-year-Katun-cycle.  Squaring 20-lunar/solar calendar years, results in a 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle.  The 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle is a product attained from 20 multiples of 20-l/s-year-Katun-cycles (Eqn. 1).  Since the ancient calendar makers had no way to express “years of years,” they easily wrote "years."

 

Squaring 20-lunar/solar calendar years to gain 400-years in a Baktun cycle, 210-days of lunar/solar separation became 210-years of lunar/solar separation time through numerical matching.  The divide by 2, time split calendar tool enables two identical halves of 105-years each to be resolved.  The lunar-side of l/s separation time halves 210-years to assign 105-days to the feminine gender (Eqn. 6).  The primary 105-year age of Seth describes masculine, sun-side or solar-side time split (Eqn. 7).  The listed primary 105-year age of Seth identifies the first solar-side time split in the ancestry of Adam.

 

All primary age inclusively make up the primary age category for lunar/solar reckoning.  The Patriarch’s primary ages identify from birth, to fatherhood of the next “son” character.  Secondary ages measure the time span from fatherhood until the respective Patriarch’s death.  The secondary age category is a cumulative figure attained by summing all of the secondary ages.

 

The ancient Mayan calendar exhibits the 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  Consecutive 400-year-Baktun-cycles count from 1 to 13 to finalize the complete Great Cycle of 5200-Tun-years of 360-days each.  A variation of the Great Cycle stems from the Long Count Initial Series.  Made known by the Dresden Codex, 5200-Haab-solar-years of 365-days each serve as an alternative Mayan calendar structure.

 

To extend the calendar computations, the ancients doubled the largest era so far attained.  The 400-year-Baktun-cycle doubles to achieve 800-years.  The 800-year cycle is a Generation Cycle in Ages of Adam and the Holy of Holies.  The 800-year Generation Cycle was a pronounced repeating pattern detailed in the Antediluvian Patriarch secondary age category.

 

A Mayan 400-year-Baktun-cycle period doubles to make the 800-year Generation Cycle.  Two 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycless make an 800-year Generation Cycle (Eqn. 2).  One secondary 800-Year Generation Cycle is present for Adam, Seth and the remaining lineage through Jared.  The end of the first 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycle for Adam signals the end of 130-years in the primary age.  A second 400-year-Baktun-cycle completes the first 800-Generation Cycle and the first 260-year-Tzolken-sacred cycle for Adam.  All primary age category listings declare time segments dictated by greater 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycles.  The midway position through the secondary age 800-years corresponds to the midway position through the primary age 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.

 

All 800-year Generation Cycle character ages are elements of the secondary age category.  The end of the third consecutive 400-year-Baktun-cycle adds the first half of Seth’s 800-year Generation Cycle.  Again, the secondary age halfway, mid-point signals the end of 105-years in the primary age.  Four steps of 400-l/s-year-Baktun-cycles divide the primary ages according to the first and third, odd Baktun 400-l/s-year multiples.  A fourth 400-year-Baktun-cycle adds to Seth’s secondary age category to conclude Seth’s 800-year Generation Cycle and 1,600-l/s-years cumulative for the Patriarchs.  The second and fourth even Baktun 400-l/s-year multiples end the total primary l/s component (Eqn. 8).

 

The Bible includes additional time beyond secondary 800-year Generation Cycles.  The second 800-year Generation Cycle in the case of Seth represents 1,600-l/s-years externally to the primary age category.  Seth’s secondary 800-year Generation Cycle is the major part in the secondary 807-year age of Seth.  Extra time between 100-years and 105-years in the primary 105-year age of Seth is 5-years.  A 364-day-Ethiopic-calendar-year multiplies for 1,820-days extra time (Eqn. 9).  The reverse conversion using the 364-day-Enochian-years is exactly 7-Tzolken-sacred-years of 260-days each (Eqn. 10).  Added to the repeating 800-year Generation Cycle for Seth, the result is 807-years in the secondary 807-year age of Seth (Eqn. 11).  The 800-year Generation Cycle was a repeating value for the remaining genealogy.

 

Clear understanding of the recorded ages realizes several key ideas.  The family of Adam marks written history in the chronicle proof of a calendar system.  The fact that only lunar/solar calendars existed to mark the passage of time gives reason to base these calculations on lunar/solar time keeping standards.  Adam is at the bottom of past calendar use.  The information contained by the legacy eras following Adam is the oldest known and fosters supreme intentions of God and humanity.

 

The best way for readers to appreciate these primary and secondary age intervals is to think about time in the manner of the ancients.  All listed ages have a beginning, a halfway or midpoint, and an ending.  Summary equation 12 identifies numerical properties for Adam using a. 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year and b. 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  The calendar structure establishes two distinct classes for each character.  Specific primary ages constitute a category that intersects with the designated secondary ages.  In turn, the secondary ages coordinate intersections with later primary ages.  The pattern structure is a chain.

The 260-year-sacred-cycle was set apart from lunar/solar measurements containing 360-year-cycles.  Solar-side separations were half of lunar/solar separations.  Solar-side separations subdivided the 260-year-sacred-cycle.  Both 260-year-sacred-cycle divisions and solar-side separations record the sequential order of the primary ages.  Seth’s primary 105-year age is the numerically matched solar, sun-side of 210-years l/s separation time.

 

Complex mathematics and astronomy were employed many thousands of years ago to accomplish tasks of calendar recording.  The two statements in equation 14 correlate 130-days to be half of a 260-day-sacred-year.  Adam's 130-years are equal to half of 260-years in a sacred cycle.  In Genesis 5:3, 130-years correlate with the primary 130-year age of Adam.  The chosen standard practice centers the year of 360-days between lunar years of 354-days or 355-days, and 365-day solar years.  The 360-day midpoint length of year dominates the ages recorded for Adam's line of descendants.  The right half circle in figure 2 diagrams the primary 130-year age of Adam and gives the equivalent left half circle to represent the complete 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.

 

The combination by Adam and Seth coined 365-years that matched with the 365-day length of solar year.  Primary ages of Adam and Seth indicate 360-days portrayed the midpoint length of year.  Numerically matched, 360-years in a cycle likewise mark a midpoint, which was halfway between “lunar years of lunar years” and “solar years of solar years.”  Concepts of halving and doubling time fix the stages of progression.

 

The Holy Bible holds precise time clues regarding our distant past.  Calendar science is the best technique to discover ancient society and their oldest written records.  The Jewish Calendar is the background to examine lunar/solar reckoning.  Spiritual ideas and specific numbering of days and years avail developing new calendar tools.  Traces of numerical matching seen for the Patriarchs are echoed later by the ancient Egyptian Calendar 1460-year Sothic Cycle and the 364-day Enochian calendar year (Genesis 5:23).  The legends and folklore preserved from ancient Egypt assist comprehensive study with yet more interpretations.  The Mayan and comparative Sun Kingdom’s calendars supply still more calendar elements coupled with mythological inferences.  Nearly everyone and everything said, written or done has been in some way affected by a calendar.  The Antediluvian Patriarchs create the written Holy of Holies sanctuary and our object of dedication.

The secondary age category entails thirteen 400-year-Baktun-cycles in the vernacular of the Mayan calendar.  Each 400-year-Baktun-cycle is the halfway, midpoint position for the entire Patriarch’s 800-year Generation Cycle.  The end of Adam’s first 400-year-Baktun-cycle in the secondary age category also identifies the end of 130-years in the primary age category.  The end of Adam’s second 400-year-Baktun-cycle completes the first 800-year Generation Cycle in the secondary age category.

 

Seth’s secondary 807-year age follows the same pattern.  The third 400-year-Baktun-cycle in the lineage is also Seth’s first 400-year-Baktun-cycle for the secondary age category.  Again, at the halfway point, Seth’s 105-year primary age of solar-side time split ends simultaneously with Seth’s first 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  The fourth 400-year-Baktun-cycle adds to the secondary age category for Seth.  Seth’s secondary age 800-year Generation Cycle finishes at the end of the fourth 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  A final period lasting 7-sacred-years, or about 1,820-days, adds the last primary age 5-years according to the Enochian 364-day calendar year.  The 365-day-solar-year adjusts to add approximately 7-sacred-years from the last 5-years in Seth’s 105-year primary age.

 

The Great Cycle is a variation of the Long Count Initial Series.  Formerly developed in conjunction with the Dresden Codex, the Long Count begins with the presumed Mayan Creation date, noted as 13.0.0.0.0.  The most significant digits on the left are Baktuns (400-years), next are Katuns (20-years), and Tuns (360-days), and Uinals (20-days), and Kins (days).  The Long Count measures from 13 Baktuns, or 5200-Tun-years.  Therefore, conjecture rationalizes at least 12 Baktuns and possibly 13 Baktuns to have elapsed prior to the onset of the Long Count.  The Great Cycle, on the other hand, introduces a cyclic calendar system whereby 5200-Tun-years repeat to mirror the 52-year Calendar Round.  The secondary age category cumulatively adds to achieve the 5200-Tun-year, or as some historians agree, 5200-Haab-years in a Mayan Great Cycle.  The Great Cycle is generally associated with 5200-Tun-years having 360-days each.  Depending on the context used, some opinions favor the 365-day-Haab-year.  The special treatment of the Wayeb 5-feast days between the 360-day-Tun-year and the 365-day-solar-year is usually included in Long Count projections.

 

The Antediluvian calendar system applies 13 steps of 400-year-Baktun-cycles to describe the 5200-year Great Cycle from Adam to Enoch.  Six 800-year Generation Cycles extend the secondary age category to represent the lives of six Patriarchs.  The six secondary ages measure time since fatherhood until the character’s death.  Adam, Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel and Jared each increment the secondary age category total by two 400-year-Baktun-cycles each.  Extra time beyond the 800-year Generation Cycle expresses in terms of 260-day-sacred-years in the first example, Seth.  The secondary age of Adam is the 800-year Generation Cycle in Genesis 5:4.  The secondary 807-year age of Seth includes the 800-year Generation Cycle, plus 7-sacred-years (Genesis 5:7).

 

The Holy Bible commits the bulk of this Holy of Holies to exploring given ages for the Antediluvian Patriarchs from Enos to Enoch.  Ages of Adam harvested calendar information from several known sources.  The Jewish Calendar, Egyptian Calendar and Sun Kingdoms’ Calendars of the Americas assist to discern fundamental requisites of lunar/solar calendar operations.  Enhancing our view of ancient time recording, additional materials from the Book of Jubilees, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Book(s) of Enoch and mythological inferences compile for better awareness about ancient calendar systems.  Styles of writing and the consistency of meanings are useful in dating ancient texts.  The purpose here is to extract pertinent fragmentary evidence offered by ancient writings to facilitate reconstruction of the oldest calendar system.

 

Supplementary literature serves our calendar interests.  Original Septuagint texts translate to compose most of the canonical Holy Bible.  The Septuagint is aptly noted LXX, for the legendary seventy or so scholars involved.  Ptolemy II (285–247 B.C.E.) requested six translators from each of the twelve tribes of Israel to work at the library at Alexandria.  They translated the first five books of Moses, or the Torah.  The Pentateuch means is the same name in Greek.  Most scholars estimate the latter part of the third century for scripture translations into Greek.  We are far more interested in the information disseminated in the text rather than every jot, yod or tittle (Matthew 5:18).  In English, this compares to crossing the t’s and dotting the i’s.  We can rest assured diligent care was exercised by Septuagint translators in creating Greek rendition(s) of the Bible.  According to the Letter of Aristeas, the Jerusalem high priest, Eleazar, was to appoint trained Jewish sages to generate precise translations.

 

Noteworthy resources embrace various stages of correspondence with several collections attributed to be authentically Septuagint.  A survey of the similarities and differences yields more specific calendar information targeted toward resolving the ages listed in chapter 5 of Genesis.  Contributing texts are placed against the background of accepted calendar systems.  Several Apocryphal (false writings and not canonical) also came to light between 100 B.C.E. and 300 A.D.

 

Striking 100-year differences exists between the Antediluvian Septuagint calendar ages and those respective ages in the traditional Bible.  A contrasting first 100-years of difference exists between the primary age of Adam, as reputed by the Septuagint, and the accepted 130-year age in the later Holy Bible versions.  The Septuagint mentions the primary age of Adam to be 230-years at Seth’s birth in Genesis 5:3.  The Septuagint’s primary 230-year age of Adam departs from a wider set of l/s calendar terms, which indicate Septuagint translators were working with a discrete 100-years term.  This 100-year difference leads us to distinguish 100-years stood alone in the script.

 

This illustration suggests that 100-years are an isolated term.  Associated numerical matching of X-days with X-years bolsters a more comprehensive scheme that situates the difference between the 260-year-sacred-cycle and the 360-year midpoint type of cycle.  Mayan calendar terminology substitutes for the equivalent 260-year-Tzolken-cycle and the 360-year-Tun-cycle.  Important considerations that select 100-days-and-years graphically determine the difference between 260-day-Tzolken-years and 360-day-Tun-years to formulate the larger frames of 260-year-Tzolken-cycles and 360-year-Tun-cycles.  A distinct 100-year term is visible in multiple translated texts.

 

Emphasis for the primary age measures from the characters’ beginning to the primary age time at fatherhood.  In the popular Holy Bible, Seth’s primary 105-year age revises to be 205-years in the Septuagint.  Scrutiny of the Holy Bible primary 105-year age of Seth reinforces the notion that the 100-year portion was likely a 100-days-and-years single term and 5-years shared the very same treatment by referring to a special 5-days-and-years single term.  Ending the 360-day-Tun-year with the special 5-day Wayeb period agrees with ending a 360-year-Tun-cycle with an outstanding terminal 5-year Wayab.  Seth’s last 5-years in the primary age, or 1,820-days, link with 7-sacred-years in the secondary age (Eqn. 13).

 

One must revert to the older versions, as translated from Torah, to give proper credit to the Holy Bible.  Our modern English versions of the Holy Bible better preserve original settings cast by the Torah.  The Greek Septuagint did a more accurate job of translating spiritual underpinnings as opposed to precise numbers.  Modern word searches and the capabilities of the Internet enable exhaustive searching.

 

The secondary 800-year age of Adam, measured from fatherhood until Adam’s death, also mutates regarding 700-years in the Septuagint.  The primary and secondary ages of Adam are offset by 100-years according to the Septuagint.  The identical 100-year deviation between the sacred texts affects the secondary age of later characters in the secondary age category by the same amount.  The mainstream of the Septuagint copies the generational flow from the character’s age at fatherhood until the characters death.  Mesoamerican l/s calendar ages were ideally fixed for both 130-years as half of the 260-year-sacred-cycle, and the 400-year-Baktun-cycle as half of the larger 800-year Generation Cycle.

 

The original Hebrew texts maintained accuracy in keeping with the Sun Kingdom’s calendars.  Specific calendar units of measurement show the principal time reckoning ingredients embedded as bits and pieces.  Differences lasting 100-years continue throughout the remaining Septuagint genealogy.  Seth, for example, has 205-years in the primary age category at his fatherhood of Enos.  The secondary 707-year age for Seth likewise indicates a 100-year shortfall from the Holy Bible account.  Both cases for Adam and Seth eventually sum for the total age life spans of 930-years for Adam and 912-years for Seth, respectively.

 

Septuagint translators had access to Torah scrolls and other manuscripts that modern people may never know.  Fire partially destroyed the library at Alexandria when Julius Caesar laid siege to the city in 48 B.C.E.  The Septuagint was the first canon in the Greek before the New Testament.  Books and parts of books were included in the canon.  Greek editions of the Hebrew Bible in many different languages aided the spread of Christianity.  Some early churches rejected Apocryphal and related works.  Septuagint research through all stages, amplifications and modifications is a separate study.  Every language and even dialect has particular meanings and interpretations akin to itself.  New translations and revisions are undergoing development to this day.

 

Stringent rules for recopying Torah scrolls have always been in effect.  Asserted in Deuteronomy 4:2 and 31:24-26, divine instructions are to preserve all scriptures intact.  No words or meanings can be added or removed.  Stewardship of the scriptures was granted to the Levite priesthood.  The New Testament later affirms the “oracles of God” are committed to the Jewish people (Romans 3:2).

 

The earliest scriptures designed to protect the sanctity and original meanings inherent to the Hebrew Bible determine the copy practices of the Levite priesthood.  The chosen Levites were to make new copies of the Bible as older copies wore out.  Meticulous rules were developed for transcribing text.  Every page needs to be an exact duplicate, word for word, and letter by letter.  Counting numbers of words and/or letters per page permitted comparisons to the original text.  Up to three people eventually were required to make a copy.  A copyist sat in full Jewish dress, accompanied by at least two others tasked with checking the manuscript for errors.  Safeguarding the Sacred Text enabled the acclaimed “fence to the scriptures.”  Words and letters remained locked into position.  A single mistake caused the entire work to be destroyed and the whole process to be started over.

 

The Temple Scriptures rested inside the Ark of the Covenant of the Holy of Holies.  The increasing Jewish population used the same methods for worship and observance wherever they settled.  Levite scribes continued to painstakingly duplicate and distribute copies.  The Masoretic text of the 9th century C.E. seems to be a standard of authenticity for Biblical scholars.  Observing technical terms and relevant styles helps to date scrolls and other written information.  The last Old Testament Prophet and scribe, Ezra is said to have fixed the canon of the Old Testament about 400 B.C.E.  Masoretic text also refers to later versions that date between 500 - 1000 C.E.  The moral to this condensed story is to realize due precautions have been observed to ensure the highest degree of content and meaning are conveyed by the new copy.  The early pathways of the Holy Bible tell the story of Judaism and the calendar practices of ancient civilization.

 

Examination of the 100-years precludes simple editorial corruption concerning the frequency and deliberate variations of the Antediluvian ages.  The 100-day-and-year single terms begins to take new meaning by the separating “two” component from the 50-year-Jubilee-cycle(s) of Leviticus.  Periods of 7-weeks having 50-days are celebrated by the Jewish Calendar festivals of Passover and the Counting the Omer that leads to Shav’ot.  The King James Version (KJV), New International Version (NIV) and many other versions have corrected any Septuagint errors to reflect the original Hebrew.

 

The Hebrew alphabet is a language and numbering system.  Translating numbers into Latin, Greek and finally English combines the numerical value and the unit.  Two passes of the 50-day-and-years single term, rather than 100-years, substantially alters our interpretation of the Antediluvian ages.  Original Hebrew documents such as The Book of Jubilees and the Book(s) of Enoch counted the number of repetitions of time cycles or addressed specific days and months during the year.  Counting Jubilees as either 49-years or 50-years has been a point of controversy in scholarly circles.  Seven-day weeks and 7-year-Sabbath-cycles involve the lunar-side of l/s calendars.  Many works mention a decree proclaiming heavenly tablets held written calendar information.

 

The Book of Jubilees, or the Book of Divisions, is another sacred historical text earlier introduced in Ages of Adam.  Most likely written in the 2nd century B.C.E., the Book of Jubilees is a historical account from Creation to Moses.  The narrative divides Jubilee periods into 49-years in a familiar story comparable to Genesis.  The only complete version of the Book of Jubilees is in Ethiopic.  Large sections survive in Latin and Greek.

 

 

364-Day Calendar Year

 

The ages listed for the Holy Bible Antediluvian Patriarchs spawned 4 major calendar threads or whole calendar systems in later history.  The Egyptian Calendar, Sun Kingdoms’ Calendars and the Jewish Calendar branched to share certain lunar/solar calendar tools described in Ages of Adam.  Another variation on the solar calendar theme occurs for the 364-day-calendar-year.  The 364-day-calendar-year was definitely a source for the Antediluvian ages and probably the original system as ordained to Moses.

 

The 364-day-calendar-year or 364-day-Enochian-year entail the solar-side of the l/s calendar.  The last 5-years in the primary age of Seth equals 1,820-days using 364-days per year (Eqn. 15).  Moreover, Seth’s last 7-sacred-years in the secondary 807-year age are equal with 1,820-days (Eqn. 16).

 

The 364-day-calendar-year depends upon measuring 10-days of l/s separation time between the 354-day-lunar-year and a 364-day-solar-year.  Two schools of thought exist in Judaism.  Lunar operations develop continuing Sabbath weeks.  A series of weeks and on a greater scale, a series of Sabbath year-weeks build.  Solar-side calendar methods include the 364-day-calendar-year and the 365-day-solar-year.  The final day at the end of the year is the impetus that gives rise to recurrent ideas of numerical matching.  The 364-day-calendar-year is the solar-side counterpart to the lunar-based Jewish calendar science.  Persistent use of 364-days created perhaps the least popular and most misunderstood branch of Judaism.  Analysis of Seth’s ages show the whole number, integer benefits gained by reckoning.  A definite 364-day tie exists for the later Antediluvian character ages.

 

An impressive list of religious texts provides evidence the 364-day-calendar-year was used in conjunction with the more elaborate Jubilee Cycle.  We can trace the 364-day-calendar-year references to four ancient texts:

 

·        Holy Bible, Genesis 5:6-7

Primary 105-Year Age of Seth

Secondary 807-year ages of Seth

·        Book of Jubilees, Ch. 6:32

“And command thou the children of Israel that they observe the years according to this reckoning- three hundred and sixty-four days, and (these) will constitute a complete year, and they will not disturb its time from its days and from its feasts; …”

·        Ethiopic Book of Enoch, Ch. 74:4

“And the harmony of the world becomes complete every three hundred and sixty-fourth state of it. … ”

·        Dead Sea Scrolls, 4Q321 (Mishmarot Ba)

Parchment fragment from Qumran Cave 4 and the archive catalog file number assigned, or the alternative name: Calendrical Document

 

Jubilee Cycles are employed in the less famous Testimony of Twelve Patriarchs book.  Original estimates placed the writing after the second century A.D., this short work mixes the Apocryphal style of the Book of Jubilees with the testimony manner seen for the Biblical Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.  Hebrew customs encouraged giving a "testimony" to children.  The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs is the testimonies of Jacob's twelve sons to their children.  Fragments of this work were found with the Dead Sea Scrolls.  An older origin combining the 364-day-calendar-year and the Jubilee Cycle is certain.

Solar-side 364-day-calendar-years set apart the last 4 days for the regular 360-day midpoint length of year.  The Egyptian and Mayan calendars celebrated a special 5-day feast period at the end of the year.  Exactly where and when the Jewish Calendar branched with respect to 364-days is uncertain.  Calculations for a 364-day-calendar-year deeply trace remote Antediluvian ages.  The Ethiopic Enoch (I) may prove to be the necessary bridge joining the Egyptian and early Jewish calendar system.

 

Enoch I perpetuates views concerning cosmology by dividing l/s 10-days l/s separation time between the 354-lunar-year and the 364-day-Enochian-year.  The lunar-side less than 360-days is allocated 6-days and the solar-side assigns 4-days to the sun and stars.  Nightly observers divided the zodiac into 72 parts, with one day-star wielding influence over each of four quarters.  Quadra partitions themes suit the Mayan Calendar combination of 18 Uinals multiplying by 20-days in the 360-day-Tun-year (Eqn. 17).  Every 1 / 72 of the zodiac represent 5-days or 5-degrees in a 360-degree circle (Eqn. 18).  The 52-year Calendar Round was the Mayan version of the Jewish Cycle.

 

The Slavonic Book of Enoch (II) mixes lunar/solar calendar references in a most unusual way.  The 19-year lunar/solar calendar reveals the lunar course in chapter 16:8.  Seven intercalary months of months of 30-days each insert 210-days of l/s separation time.  Babylonian influences on Jewish Calendar monthly names resulted in adoption of 19-year l/s cycles with the framework of Metonic 19-year patterns.

 

Another reference in chapter 16:3 cites the 365 and one-quarter day solar year.  A sense of the later Roman Julian calendar was in effect.  Most scholars label the Slavonic Book of Enoch (II) as a product of the second century B.C.E.  The origins of Enoch II are obscure.  Such is the case with many other ancient manuscripts.

1 And in the third week in the second jubilee she gave birth to Cain, and in the fourth she gave birth to Abel, and in the fifth she gave birth to her daughter Awan. And in the first (year) of the third jubilee, Cain slew Abel because (God) accepted the sacrifice of Abel, and did not accept

Around 153-105 B.C., an apocryphal book, the Book of Jubilees, was written. It divides the history of the world into "Jubilees" of 49-year periods, seven weeks of years. The biblical idea of the Jubilee year, the 50th year following the seven weeks of years (Leviticus 25:8-12) is ignored. Thus, the Jews accepted this erroneous idea and are confused as to the true Jubilee. As the Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible (Abingdon Press, Nashville, 1962), article "Jubilee, Year of," admits, the so-called Book of Jubilees completely disregards the original and true Jubilee Year:

. . . in the official count of Sabbatical Years in the Maccabean and post-Maccabean periods the Jubilee Year was omitted entirely and the Sabbatical Years followed each other in uninterrupted succession every seven years. Moreover, certain later, rabbinic authorities likewise reckoned a Jubilee period as of only forty-nine years, although a majority adhered, quite naturally, to the biblical reckoning of the period as of fifty years.

 

 

Converting the Primary 130-Tun-Year Age of Adam to 180-Tzolken-Sacred-Years

 

The Antediluvian Calendar in Genesis 5 begins with the primary 130-year age of Adam.  Adam’s primary 130-year age is exactly half of the Mayan 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  Midpoint 360-day lengths arise from the heavenly Zodiac that has 360-degrees in a circle.  In the Mayan vernacular, every Tun-year is 360-days long.  Time Emits uses hyphenated phrases to improve consistency and reading clarity.

 

Mayan 360-day-Tun-years left the remaining 5-day Wayeb period before reaching a 365-day-Haab-solar-year.  Four Year Bearer days complete a 364-day-calendar-year.  Similar to our modern Leap Day cycle, five different 4-year-cycles make one 20-year-Katun-cycle.  One final day ends the 365-day-Haab-solar-year, which reserves the practice that numerically matches X-days with X-years.

 

Mayan cosmology reflects early Jewish philosophy regarding four special days every year.  Sacred Jewish writing refers to spiritual angels in heavenly metaphors.  The lunar-side is less than 360-days.  Enoch I allocated 6-days to the 354-day-lunar-year for the lunar-side of l/s operations.  The solar-side assigns 4-days to the sun and stars beyond a midpoint 360-day length of year.  Nightly observers divided the Zodiac into 72 parts, with one Royal day-star wielding influence over each of four quarters.  The main difference is that most Mayan groups united the four special days together prior to restarting the New Year on the vernal equinox.  A 364-day-Ethiopic-year divides the year into four equal quadrants having 91-days according to four Royal Stars.  Concepts of dividing time into four equal parts transcended other cultural differences.  Most significant are four quarterly divisions of the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.

 

Four Year Bearer days divide the 260-day-Tzolken-year into equal quadrants having 65-days each.  Numerical matching and identical segmenting techniques divide the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle into four quadrants having 65-Tun-years each.  The first division in the Antediluvian Calendar combines two 65-Tun-year periods for Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age.  Substituting a 360-year-Tun-cycle having 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years provides equivalent results.  Adam’s primary age has the same total number of days given the equivalent 180-Tzolken-sacred-years of 260-days per Tzolken-sacred-year.

 

Converting the primary 130-Tun-year age of Adam to 180-Tzolken-sacred-years involves finding the total number of days for the two types of years.  Comparisons for the two types of cycles are exactly twice the primary age of Adam in days.  The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle multiplies by 360-day-Tun-years for the greatest common 93,600-days (Eqn. 1).  Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age that has 360-day-Tun-years is one-half of a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle or 46,800-days (Eqn. 2).  The equivalent 360-Tun-year-cycle multiplies by 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year to get 93,600-days (Eqn. 3).  Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age converts to 180-Tzolken-sacred-years or 46,800-days (Eqn. 4).  Equations 1 and 3 answer 93,600-days for both time cycles.  Adam’s primary age is the one-half value equal to 46,800-days in equations 2 and 4.  The equivalent 180-Tzolken-sacred-years of 260-days each are the converted primary age answer for Adam.  The special 5-day Wayeb feast period tracks separately.

 

Figure 3 shows the conversion for the primary 130-Tun-year age of Adam.  The primary 130-Tun-year age of Adam refers to 360-day-Tun-years.  The left circle in figure 3 shows the green primary 130-Tun-year age of Adam in 360-day-Tun-years.  Conversion of 130-Tun-years to 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years incorporates finding the total days in the primary 130-Tun-year age (Eqn. 1).  Mayan terminology numerically matches 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years with the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age multiplies by 360-day-Tun-years to produce 46,800-days (Eqn. 2).  An equivalent 360-year-Tun-cycle has 360-Tzolken-sacred-years or 93,600-days (Eqn. 3).  The conversion for Adam finishes by dividing 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years into the primary 46,800-day age.  The equivalent 180-Tzolken-sacred-years of 260-days each are the converted primary age answer for Adam (Eqn. 4).  The green right half of figure 3 depicts the converted primary 180-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Adam.

The primary age for Adam reports 360-day-Tun-years.  Seth’s primary 105-Ethiopic-year age measures 364-day-Ethiopic-years that acknowledge solar-side reckoning.  The third and fourth characters, Enos and Cainan, list their primary ages in 260-day-Tzolken-years.  Mahalaleel and Jared form the next pair of primary ages.  Mahalaleel and Jared are the fifth and sixth characters in a pair together.  The primary ages for Mahalaleel and Jared switch back to 360-day-Tun-years.

 

The 365-year-solar-cycle had similar divisions influencing the Antediluvian Calendar.  A 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle was followed 100-years later by the 360-year-Tun-cycle.  The last 5-years of the 365-year-solar-cycle had both 4-year and single year elements attached.  Numerical matching X-number of days to X-number of years was the recurrent theme of the Antediluvian Calendar.

 

Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age using 360-day-Tun-years finishes after the first secondary age 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  Midpoint age levels in the secondary 800-year Generation Cycle coincide with the end of the respective primary age for each character.  The second 400-year-Baktun-cycle in the secondary age category completes the first 800-year Generation Cycle.  Four 65-year parts constitute one total 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  The primary 130-year age of Adam lasts for two 65-Tun-year portions.  The primary age category 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle begins with Adam, includes Enos and completes with the primary 65-Tun-year age of Mahalaleel.  Solar-side time splits by Seth, Cainan and Jared alternate character primary ages in a separate solar-side primary age category 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  Exchanges between 260-day-Tzolken-years and 360-day-Tun-years occur throughout the genealogy of Antediluvian Patriarchs.

All primary age situations were marked according to 400-year-Baktun-cycles.  The first 400-year-Baktun-cycle determines the primary age.  The halfway, midpoint position during every 800-year Generation Cycle is the end of the character’s primary age.  The secondary age category continues by adding the second 400-year-Baktun-cycle to finish the 800-year Generation Cycle.  One 800-year Generation Cycle adds for each character in the secondary age category.  Thirteen 400-year-Baktun-cycles make up the entire 5200-year Great Cycle for the genealogy.

 

Several partitions in the year and different types of cycles existed simultaneously in a complex pattern of calendar eschatology.  The 365-day-solar-year divides according to a 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year, and 100-days later, a 360-day-Tun-year.  Five days at the end of the 365-day-solar-year had a 4-day component that imparts the presiding day-star notion for each 91-day quarter in the 364-day-calendar-year.  One final day at the end of the year numerically matches multiples of years.

 

Partitions of the 365-day-solar-year and the matched 365-year-solar-cycle elaborate regular ancient calendar divisions.  The 260-day-and-year, 360-day-and-year, plus four or 5-day-and-year single terms fulfill named Mayan segments.  A phrase glossary is included to supplement the calendar toolbox list from Ages of Adam.

Lunar/solar separation times bisect time measurements for the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year and the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle in the later Antediluvian sequence.  Mayan 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years differentiate from 360-day-Tun-years by 100-days.  The 100-days-and-years single term has a bearing upon this relationship.  The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle and the 360-year-Tun-cycle are separate by 100-years.  Shared resources differentiate two different major time cycles of the Antediluvian Calendar by 100-days and 100-years.  Later calendar systems and essential religious texts recognized the 100-days-and-years single term significance in alternative ways.

 

The Antediluvian parent calendar branched into four major calendar systems.  Egyptian and Mayan calendars group the last 5-days-and-years single term with chosen numerical matching philosophies.  The traditional Jewish Calendar eventually settled with the Metonic 19-year lunar/solar cycle.  The fourth system is the comparable 364-day-calendar-year.  Characteristic roles generate the parallel use of a 364-year-cyle that highlights a single day-and-year numerical identity.  Documentation relating to an Enochian sect and mysterious Qumran community may be traceable to much older beginnings.  The Book of Enoch and the Book of Jubilees are included in the Ethiopic Narrower Canon between Deuteronomy and Joshua.  The Egyptian 1,460-year Sothic Cycle underscores a slightly altered branch of solar calendar development.

 

Fifty years in the ancient Jewish Jubilee and 52-years in the Mayan Calendar have similar religious and numerical connotations.  Two 50-year Jubilee Cycles make 100-years and two 52-year Calendar Rounds add to detail 104-years.  A 364-day-calendar-year sections the 360-day-Tun-year and saved the remaining 4-days for later.  The final capstone day proves the basis for numerically matching days to years.  Four quadrant divisions of a matched 360-year-Tun-cycle draw almost universally from ancient theology.  Nearly every civilization, old or new, recognizes the two equinoxes and two solstices with spiritual affinity.

 

Building the Antediluvian series required marvelous command of astronomy and mathematics.  Accepted Mayan Calendar practices overlay the oldest and most prestigious calendar scale in human history.  Character primary and secondary ages seem like chambers attached to a grand hallway.  Indeed, halls and corridors grace the realms occupied by spirits.  Genesis is the great cathedral to God under heavenly canopy and the refuge accessible only through dreams and visions, birth and death.

 

The Mayan Calendar increases by multi-layers of the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.  The 52-year Calendar Round is the model for the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  A 52-year Calendar Round multiplies 52-Tun-years of 360-days per Tun year to arrive at 18,720-days.  Five special feast days called the Wayeb finish the 365-day-solar-year.  Haab-years are the Mayan name for 365-day-solar-years.  Calendar Rounds conclude with a final 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.  The terminal 5-day Wayeb period multiplies by 52-years to make the last 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.  Each Calendar Round consists of 73-Tzolken-sacred-years or 18,980-days.

 

The Antediluvian Calendar extends the capacity of the Mayan 52-year Calendar Round five times.  A 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle results from multiplying the 52-year Calendar Round five times (Eqn. 21).  Identical designs convey the 365-Tzolken-sacred-year-cycle (Eqn. 22).  This calendar pattern isolates the last of 73-Tzolken-sacred-years in the Calendar Round five different times.  All primary ages stem from the 52-year Calendar Round partitions.

 

Truly astronomical proportions take place when one applies identical calendar principles to the 365-day-solar-year.  The Calendar Round includes 73-Tzolken-sacred-years, which are equal to the Calendar Round’s 52-Haab-solar-years.  Cascaded time achieves zenith in deriving the 365-Tzolken-sacred-year-solar-cycle.  The Egyptian 1460-year Sothic Cycle, 364-day-calendar-year and the Mayan Calendar are all present within the Antediluvian Calendar system.  Tun-cycles with 360-years set apart a terminal 5-year period in the style akin to the last 5-day Wayeb of the 365-day-solar-year.

 

Tun-years in the Mayan Calendar have 360-days that result from 18-Uinals of 20-days each.  The Mayan Calendar treats the last 5-day Wayeb period with noteworthy holiday respect.  The 5-day feast period came at the end of the year.  The primary 105-days-and-year age of Seth includes a 100-days-and-years single term, plus the last 5-days-and-years single term.  The secondary 807-year age of Seth repeats the 800-year Generation Cycle and adds 7-Tzolken-sacred-years or 1820-days.  The complementary 5-days-and-years single term festival period arises to illuminate the 52-year Calendar Round and consistencies asserted in Egyptian mythology.

 

The 100-days-and-years single term influences relevant Hebrew time reckoning.  Variations for Seth’s primary age reside in ancient texts.  The Book of Jubilees substitutes two Jubilee Cycles with 49-years each in place of 50-years.  Continuous lunar-side reckoning counted Sabbath-weeks and Sabbath-years.  Sages wrote Jubilee Cycles as 49-years rather than 50-years during this part of the Apocryphal era.  Later historians date the Book of Jubilees between 153-105 B.C.E.

 

 Mention verse for 360-days and men error, etc.

 

Septuagint writings, through all stages, suffered the same sort of tinkering with regard to Jubilee Cycles and Antediluvian times.  Seth’s 105-year primary age is 205-years in the Septuagint.  The secondary age is 707-years instead of the Biblical 807-years.  In fact, most Antediluvian ages are corrupt by 100-years with regard to the Biblical ages.  Consistent numerical variants add 100-years to the character’s primary age and subtract 100-years from the secondary ages.  Confusion resulted when original meanings were lost or ignored.

 

The 365-year-solar-cycle had similar divisions influencing the Antediluvian Calendar.  A 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle was followed 100-years later by the 360-year-Tun-cycle.  The last 5-years of the 365-year-solar-cycle had both 4-year and single year elements attached.  Numerical matching X-number of days to X-number of years was the recurrent theme of the Antediluvian Calendar.

 

The cycle of the Pleiadies uses 26,000 years, but is reflected in the calendar we are using by encompassing 260 days. It uses the sacred numbers 13 and 20. The 13 represents the numbers and 20 represents the sun/glyphs. The Tzolk'in has four smaller cycles called seasons of 65 days each guarded by the four suns of Chicchan, Oc, Men and Ahau.

Genesis 5:9

"And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan:"

 

Partitions in the Antediluvian Calendar year lay the groundwork for establishing two different types of cycles.  Mayan 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years and 360-day-Tun-years exist simultaneously to support a complex calendar arrangement.  A standard 365-day-solar-year divides according to a 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year, and 100-days later, a 360-day-Tun-year.  Five days remain at the end of every 365-day-solar-year.  The 364-day-calendar-year version includes a 4-day solar-side component marked by four principal Royal Stars to represent four 91-day quarters.  Solar-year variations reserve the final day for numerical matching X-days with multiples of X-years.  Each primary age occurs at the time the next character was born.

 

The 365-year-solar-cycle had similar divisions influencing the Antediluvian Calendar.  A 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle was followed 100-years later by the 360-year-Tun-cycle.  The last 5-years of the 365-year-solar-cycle had both 4-year and single year elements.  Numerical matching X-number of days with X-number of years was the recurring theme.  Single terms containing X-number of days-and-years present the waterfall order of cascaded time.  Single terms also express pertinent types of years and cycles.  The genealogy uses the Tzolken 260-days-and-years single term to implement the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  The Tun 360-days-and-years single term likewise develops the 360-year-Tun-cycle.  All characters from Adam through Enoch list their first Genesis age, in the primary age category.  One primary age 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle completes for Adam, Enos and Mahalaleel.  Seth and Cainan constitute another solar-side time split 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.

 

Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age halves the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle is fundamental to the Antediluvian Calendar.  The primary ages of Adam and Enos are halfway, midpoint denominations regarding the Tzolken 260-days-and-years single term.  Converting Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age to 180-Tzolken-sacred-years equally halves a 360-year-Tun-cycle that uses 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years.  Assessment involves finding the total number of days per cycle for the two types of years.  Comparisons for the two types of cycles are exactly twice the primary age of Adam in days.  The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle multiplies by 360-day-Tun-years for the greatest common 93,600-days (Eqn. 1-29).  Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age that has 360-day-Tun-years is one-half of a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle or 46,800-days (Eqn. 2).  The equivalent 360-Tun-year-cycle multiplies by 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year to get 93,600-days (Eqn. 3).  Converting Adam’s 130-Tun-years to 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years totals 46,800-days in the primary age.  The 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year is a constant that multiplies by 180-Tzolken-sacred-years to get the primary age total 46,800-days.  Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age converts to 180-Tzolken-sacred-years (Eqn. 4).  Equations 1 and 3 answer 93,600-days for both time cycles.  Adam’s primary age is equal to one-half or 46,800-days in equations 2 and 4.  The equivalent 180-Tzolken-sacred-years of 260-days each are the converted primary age answer for Adam.  The converted primary 180-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Adam with 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years defines the end of the first 400-year-Baktun-cycle and midpoint of the secondary age 800-year Generation Cycle.  The special 5-day Wayeb feast period tracks separately.

 

The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle is the left side circle graphed in figure 4.  Primary ages are halfway, midpoint denominations of the Tzolken 260-days-and-years single term.  Conversion to 180-Tzolken-sacred-years equally halves a 360-year-Tun-cycle with 360-Tzolken-sacred-years, each of which use 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years (Eqn. 29).  Converting Adam’s 130-Tun-years to 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years incorporates finding the total days of the primary age and dividing by 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years.  The 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year is a constant.  The primary 130-year age of Adam converts to 180-Tzolken-sacred-years on the right side of figure 4.  The converted primary 180-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Adam with 260-days per Tzolken-sacred-year defines the green right-hand side of the right graphic in figure 2.

 

Adam and Seth combine in a 365-year-solar-cycle.  Genesis 5:3 cites the primary 130-year age for Adam in 360-day-Tun-years.  The primary 130-Tun-year age of Adam represents half of a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age gave human context to the solar, masculine side of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  Twice Adam’s 130-Tun-year age comprises one entire 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  Seth’s primary 105-year age then completes the 365-year-solar-cycle.  Seth adds 105-years of solar-side time split to the primary age category (Genesis 5:6).  Adam and Seth form a pair that counts four different Mayan 400-year-Baktun-cycles.  Adam and Seth together span over 1,600-l/s-years in the secondary age category.

 

A 365-year-solar-cycle is complete with the addition of Seth's primary 105-year age (Fig. 1).  The primary 105-Ethiopic-year age of Seth reiterates the masculine, solar-side of lunar/solar separation time.  Five 364-day-Ethiopic-years conclude the primary 105-Ethiopic-year age of Seth externally to a 360-year-Tun-cycle.  The basic 360-year-Tun-cycle, plus the last 5-Ethiopic-years account for the 365-year-solar-cycle.  Each year of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle is a 360-day-Tun-year, plus 5-days independent, and each year of the 360-year Tun-cycle is a 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.  The last 5-days-and-years single term determines time remaining after the secondary 800-year Generation Cycle.

 

Sun Kingdoms' Calendars distinctively set aside the nameless 5-day Wayeb every year as feast days.  The special 5-day period came after the 360-day-Tun-year to complete the 365-day-solar-year.  The first 4-days of the 5-day Wayeb period were Year Bearers.  Egyptian and Mayan Calendars grouped the last 5-days with chosen numerical matching philosophies.  A single term of 5-days-and-years arises to enumerate the Mayan 52-year Calendar Round and consistencies asserted in Egyptian mythology.  A single day-to-year numerical identity highlights the comparable 364-day-Ethiopic-year.  Characteristic roles generate parallel use of a 364-year-calendar-cycle.  Documentation relating an Ethiopic Enochian sect and the mysterious Qumran community may be traceable to much older beginnings.  The Egyptian 1,460-year Sothic Cycle and the 364-day-Ethiopic-calendar-year underscore slightly altered branches of solar calendar development.

 

The primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Enos archives the next layer of lunar/solar progression according to Genesis 5:9.  The conversion technique allows age sections to exchange between the two cycles.  Tun-years having 360-days and 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years are positioned with a specific primary age sequence. Adam’s primary age computes the first half 130-Tun-years equal to 46,800-days (Eqn. 2).  The next halfway division of 180-Tzolken-sacred-years occurs for Enos.  A 180-Tzolken-sacred-year period divides in half for 90-Tzolken-sacred-years.  Multiplying 90-Tzolken-sacred-years by 360-day-Tun-years is equal to 23,400-days (Eqn. 5).  The primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year of Enos converts to 360-day-Tun-years in reverse order to detail the biblical ages.  The primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Enos, which equals 23,400-days, is one-quarter of a 360-year-Tun-cycle.  Similarly, one-quarter of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle is 65-Tun-years.  Equation 6 multiplies 65-Tun-years by the 360-day-Tun-year to find the same 23,400-days in the converted primary age of Enos.  Summary equation 7 shows the quarterly designations for both types of cycles and the final 23,400-day age of Enos when his son, Cainan was born.  Transitions from one character to the next change the primary age descriptions from 360-day-Tun-years to 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years or vice versa.  The conversion technique from figure 2 allows age sections to be exchanged between the two cycles.  Figure 4 computed the first half 130-Tun-years equal to 46,800-days (Eqn. 2).

One 65-Tun-year quarter of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle equals the given primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age for Enos.  The same 23,400-days equal one quarter of 360-Tzolken-sacred-years in a 360-year-Tun-cycle.  Enos marks the halfway point opposite to Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age.  Enos subdivides the next 180-Tzolken-sacred-years with two quadrants 90-Tzolken-sacred-years.  Four Mayan Year Bearer days divide the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year into four quarters.  Identical numerical matching divides the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle into four quadrants.  Enos has a primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age that equals 65-Tun-years.  The halving of layered primary ages is definite.

 

The 360-year-Tun-cycle separates into 180-Tzolken-sacred-years for the converted primary age of Adam.  A half of a half is effectively the result for the primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Enos.  Definitions for the Tzolken-sacred-year or sacred-years in the Bible primary 90-Tzolken-year age of Enos are absent.  The name of Enos applies a literal definition for mortal man that strengthens Adam’s literal generic man meaning.  Masculine traits implied for Old Testament vertical sacred pillars consolidate early attitudes that bear similes with solar rising and setting positions.  Men began to call upon the name of the Lord (Genesis 4:26).  The 360-day-Tun-year embeds so distantly remote that it defies chronology.  The centerline value between lunar years and solar years dominates lunar/solar calendars.

 

The mainstay calendar length of year was always 12-months of 30-days each when people began to count weeks.  The year of 360-days and sacred standing stones were joint requirements for the earliest worship.  Expanding early theology to span 360-year-Tun-cycles naturally associates the Zodiac with deified kings and the angelic host.  The style of 360-day-Tun-years captures the essence of 364-day-calendar-year texts.  Dominant Patriarchs were special mediators between the spiritual Lord above and mortal people below.  Cosmology of the heavens includes saintly lore and astronomy.  Kings, leaders and gods enter the assortment of mythological figures.  Some characters in the Antediluvian Calendar genealogy fit the distinguishing scorn of fallen angels today.

 

Any year of 360-days inherently references the oldest technical lunar reckoning on earth.  Scores of calendars have approximated lunar months to 30-days each.  Twelve whole 30-day-lunar-months are foundational for 360-degrees in a circle.  Associated culture has generated an overwhelming spectrum of religious, mathematical and scientific endeavors.  Events leading to the Deluge noted the 360-day-calendar-year in the archaic calendar scriptures of Genesis 7:11.  Celebrated use of the 360-day calendar year rightly perpetuates society.  Chinese, Greek, Hindu and many subcultures employed variations of 360-days and detached 5-days remaining in the solar year.  The Egyptian Coptic calendar is representative for most 365-day-solar-year operations.  King Djoser (2670 B.C.E.) is reputed to have modified the older 365-day Egyptian calendar year to include one Leap Day every 4-years.  Every fourth year, 5-days at the end of the year were increased to 6-days during leap years.  Today, modern Coptic and Ethiopic calendars follow Gregorian leap day additions.

 

Numerical matching was especially vital for groups adhering to the 364-day-calendar-year.  Extending 360-days that bracket together with 360-years is a natural outgrowth.  Mayan and related Sun Kingdoms’ cultures observed with the same pretense.  The 360-day-Tun-year blends with the 360-year-Tun-cycle to accentuate diverse calendar functions.  Everything in time and space belonged to four main quadrants.  Ceremonial centers ingrained directions of north, south, east and west through architecture.  Sunlight and shadow displays coincided with equinoxes and solstices.  Campuses and buildings specifically highlight the four cardinal points annually.  A Mayan Tun that has 360-days-and-years is a single term.

The next halfway division of 180-Tzolken-sacred-years occurs for Enos.  The 180-Tzolken-sacred-years divide in half for 90-Tzolken-sacred-years.  The upper quarter of the 260-year-sacred-cycle in figure 4 is the converted result from figure 3. Figure 3 represents the right 180-Tzolken-sacred-years with two periods of 90-Tzolken-sacred-years each that Enos subdivides.  The lower right quarter is red, showing the mirrored 90-Tzolken-sacred-years as half of 180-Tzolken sacred-years.  Figure 4 shows the green, third quarter primary 65-Tun-year age of Enos in contrast to the red fourth quarter.  The halving of layered primary ages is definite.

 

Converting the Primary 90-Sacred-Year Age of Enos to 65-Tun-Years explains the third quarter division of the lunar/solar 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle started by the primary 130-Tun-year age of Adam.  Enos skips over the solar-side primary 105-year age of Seth to add 65-Tun-years in the primary age category.  The primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Cainan is solar-side time split that divides the primary ages of Enos and Mahalaleel.  Mahalaleel completes the first 260-year-Tzolken -sacred-cycle by adding the last 65-Tun-year quarter to the lineage of Antediluvian Patriarchs.

 

 

Converting the Primary 90-Sacred-Year Age of Enos to 65-Tun-Years

 

Genesis 5:9

"And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan:"

 

The primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Enos archives the next layer of lunar/solar progression according to Genesis 5:9.  Conversion techniques allow ages to exchange between the two cycles: a 360-year-Tun-cycle consisting of 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years and a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle consisting of 360-day-Tun-years.  Both kinds of cycles total 93,600-days (Eqn 1 and Eqn. 2).  Tun-years having 360-days and 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years are positioned with a specific primary age sequence in the Antediluvian Patriarch calendar.  Two values are equal: 130-Tun-years made with 360-days and 180-Tzolken-sacred-years made with 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years.  Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age computes the first half 130-Tun-years equal to 46,800-days (Eqn. 3).  The next halfway division of 180-Tzolken-sacred-years occurs for Enos.  A 180-Tzolken-sacred-year period equal to the primary 130-Tun-year age of Adam (Genesis 5:3), divides in half for 90-Tzolken-sacred-years.  Multiplying 90-Tzolken-sacred-years by 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years is equal to 23,400-days (Eqn. 4).  The primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year of Enos converts to 360-day-Tun-years in reverse order to detail biblical ages.  The primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Enos, which equals 23,400-days, is one-quarter of a 360-year-Tun-cycle.  Similarly, one-quarter of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle is 65-Tun-years.  Equation 5 multiplies 65-Tun-years by the 360-day-Tun-year to find the same 23,400-days in the converted primary 65-Tun-year age of Enos.  Summary equations 6 and 7 show quarterly designations for both types of cycles and the final 23,400-day age of Enos when his son, Cainan was born.  Transitions from one character to the next change the primary age descriptions from 360-day-Tun-years to 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years or vice versa.

 

One 65-Tun-year quarter of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle equals the given primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age for Enos.  The same 23,400-days equal one quarter of 360-Tzolken-sacred-years in a 360-year-Tun-cycle.  Enos marks the halfway point opposite to Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age.  Enos subdivides the next 180-Tzolken-sacred-years by marking one 90-Tzolken-sacred-year quadrant.  Four Mayan Year Bearer days divide the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year into four quarters.  Identical numerical matching divides the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle into four quadrants.  Enos has a primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age that equals 65-Tun-years.  The halving of layered primary ages is definite.

The 360-year-Tun-cycle separates into 180-Tzolken-sacred-years for the converted primary age of Adam.  A half of a half is effectively the result for the primary 90-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Enos.  Definitions for the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year or 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle in the Bible are absent.  The primary 90-Tzolken-year age of Enos fits Mayan Calendar practices regarding the sacred Tzolken.  The name of Enos applies a literal definition for mortal man that strengthens Adam’s literal generic man meaning.  Masculine traits implied for Old Testament vertical sacred pillars consolidate early attitudes that bear similes with solar rising and setting positions.  Men began to call upon the name of the Lord (Genesis 4:26).  The 360-day-Tun-year embeds so distantly remote that it defies chronology.  The centerline value between lunar years and solar years dominates lunar/solar calendars.

Zodiac Calendar History

 

History of the zodiac covers calendar science, astronomy and culture.  The zodiac circle has 360-degrees.  Calendar reckoning purposes translate the zodiac circle to the basic 360-day-calendar-year.  The equator is an imaginary line that circumscribes Earth at 0-degrees latitude.  Extending the equatorial circle into space creates a mathematical plane between the equator on the surface and the corresponding circle in space called the ecliptic.  The equator and the ecliptic are in perfect alignment only at two distinct equinox times during the year.

 

The zodiac typically refers to the stars and star groups or constellations near the ecliptic band throughout the year.  Modern astrology recognizes 12 different sign constellations spaced roughly 30-days or 30-degrees apart.  The sun and moon travel along the ecliptic and the zodiacal stars vary up to about 8-degrees either side of the ecliptic.  Spiritual concerns span nearly every culture and anchor most world religions.  Astrology here includes the ancient branch of calendar science that mixes beliefs in astrology with early astronomy.  The following list details general dates and typical sign characteristics for each constellation sign.

Sumerian 6 Sign Zodiac and Mayan Calendar 360-Day-Tun-Years

 

The Antediluvian Calendar in Genesis 5 establishes original counting techniques that carry forward to variations of Jewish and Mesoamerican calendar systems.  Significant 364-day-Ethiopic-years and the matching corollary term, 364-year-Ethiopic-cycles manifest similar traits.  Mayan 52-year Calendar Rounds and Judaic 50-year Jubilee Cycles have nearly identical properties regarding the 360-day midpoint length of year.  Discernable differences arise from how the calendars marked four special days in the old year.  New Year beginnings and the annual tally within each cycle are a direct result.  Many Mesoamerican Calendar variations exist to suggest no firm rules ever did apply.  Middle Eastern influences controlling religious Judaism were contributing factors as well.  An ancient Babylonian tradition recites the Creation epic on the fourth day of the New Year’s festival.  Exactly when and how ancient New Year’s Days increment next year counts within a greater cycle is a contentious subject.

 

Annual procedures leading to New Year’s Day on the vernal, spring equinox divide a Judaic 360-day midpoint length of year into four equal quarters having 90-days each.  The vernal equinox occurs in springtime when the ecliptic intersects the celestial equator.  One single day each quarter aligns with each Royal day-star.  The four archangel stars conclusively identify as Regulus, Aldebaran, Antares and Fomalhaut.  These four archangel stars once signified four cardinal points in the ancient year.  Descriptions in the Books of Enoch and elsewhere add these 4-day stars to 360-days every year to create the 364-day-Ethiopic-year.  One Royal day-star adds with each of four quarters.  Early astronomy and astrology combine long ago.  Regulus introduces the summer solstice.  Regulus is the heart of the constellation Leo the lion and leader of the four royal stars.  Aldebaran is a red giant star and the Eye of Taurus the Bull.  Antares is the heart of the Scorpion.  Fomalhaut belongs to the Southern Fish, Pisces.  According to Enoch, the four day-stars are isolated and especially “not included in the regular computation of the year.”

 

The Antediluvian Calendar is similar to the classical Mayan Calendar in many respects.  A 360-day-Tun-year consists of 18 Uinal periods of 20-days each.  The 18 Uinal glyph names reflect an original group of 18 affiliated Mesoamerican tribes.  Many Old Testament researchers relate the famous 12 tribes of Israel to 12 astrological signs of the ancient Mesopotamian zodiac.  We associate zodiac names with "zoo," because most constellations aptly name animal gods.  Familiar names include Leo the lion, Aries the ram, Scorpio the scorpion, Cancer the crab, Pisces the fish, Capricorn the goat and Taurus the bull.  God made the heavenly bodies to show us SIGNS that serve to mark calendar time.  Since ancient days, humanity has encompassed the pseudo-science of astrology to render interpretations involving motions of the sun, moon, planets and stars.  Our intentions here posit archaic spiritual preoccupations against the backdrop of emerging calendar science.

 

Genesis 1:14-15

“And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth.  And it was so.”

 

Mayan worship spread the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year amongst polytheism.  Numbered day signs from 1 to 13 associate with animal god names in the Maya glyph language.  The ecliptic marks the double-headed serpent path of the Mayan zodiac.  According to the Paris codex, Mayan god animals were in position at the time of the vernal equinox in 3113 B.C.E. or the presumed starting date of the Mayan Calendar.  Of course, not all 13 constellations in the zodiac were visible together.  Only four constellations were viewable while the other nine were below the horizon in the nether underworld.  Known parts of the zodiac appear in a manner that compare with other zodiacs.  Scorpio equates with the scorpion.  Gemini appears related to a pig.  Mayan turtle stars form sections of the Gemini and Orion constellations.  The ecliptic ends with the rattlesnake tail we call the Pleiades.  The Pleiades rest midway between Aries and Taurus.  Aries is the Jaguar god, Leo is a frog and finally Scorpion.  Dual Mayan Calendar years worked like meshed gears to perform one 52-year Calendar Round that has 18,980-days.  Counterpart to the 360-day-Tun-year was the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.  Continuation of religious festivals has preserved beliefs surrounding the zodiacal Tzolken.

 

The ancient Mesoamerican Tzolken zodiac includes the constellation Ophiuchus according to many archeo-astrologists.  Stargazers recognize Ophiuchus as the Serpent Holder 13th sign between Scorpio and Sagittarius.  Lunar months favor traditional 12 astrological sign zodiacs in a 360-day format.  The 12-month zodiac omits Ophiuchus even though the ecliptic passes through it.  The Serpent Holder was the mysterious Grecian god healer Aesculapius, who had the ability to raise the dead and cure the sick.  Obscure ties with Sumerian or Babylonian zodiacs entwine Ophiuchus with Creation tales of Tiamut, Enki and Marduk - Jupiter.  Ophiuchus is the hidden constellation.

 

Judaic views about monotheism recognize a single omnipotent God without regard to any other form of idolatry, man made or celestial.  Lunar months have always been traditionally important to Jewish Calendar reckoning.  Whether three 30-day months culminate in 90-day quarters or as part of Metonic 19-year lunar/solar cycles, sighting the new moon crescent was of paramount importance to Jewish Calendar reckoning.  Jewish month names show Sumerian-Babylonian influence.  Sumerian and Babylonian calendars also began months according to new moon crescents.  Monotheism replaced polytheism for Jewish people living in Mesopotamia.

 

Sumerian cosmology is responsible for an early set of core beliefs found in the Holy Bible.  Sumerians have the distinction of being the earliest inhabitants of the Fertile Crescent region.  Beginning 8,000-years B.C.E., Sumerian culture realized a priest-astronomer class, improved agrarian techniques and developed the first sexagesimal (base 60) numbering system.  Sumerian language bears affinity to vocabulary and similar concepts found in the ancient tongues of India and Africa.  They referred to themselves as “Black Heads.”  The name Sudan traces the “Land of the Blacks.”  Biblical references may include the famous Kingdom of Kush from Northern Sudan eastward to the Nile River.  One other point is worth mentioning.  Etymology for the name Adam shows derivation from the Assyrian Adami or man.  Some references also indicate Adami was particularly the black headed man.  In light of the Ethiopic 364-day-calendar-year and full knowledge that cultural exchanges took place between Northern Africa and Egypt, there is reasonable assurance that Sumerian astrology and astronomy predicates later Babylonian and Egyptian zodiacs.  Astrological signs are the ancient mathematical interpretations that measure time.  Entire pictures decorated minds and artwork long ago.  Astronomical constellations are the modern approach that purely references scientific observation.  Many star charts contain line diagrams that signify astrological sign shapes.

 

The Sumerian year had 12-lunar-months, based upon phases of the moon and just two seasons.  Summer began on the vernal spring equinox
