Primary 70 Sacred-Year Age of Cainan
Genesis 5:12
"And Cainan lived seventy years, and begat Mahalaleel:"
The primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Cainan anchors to the Antediluvian Calendar in three different ways. All three methods involve the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year. The first method occurs after two successive intervals of Seth’s 105-year primary age. Seth’s 105-year primary age is the solar-side time split gained from the third 400-year-Baktun-cycle. The fourth 400-year-Baktun-cycle accrues the second half of the second 800-year Generation Cycle in the secondary age category. There are 210-years of total solar-side time split following Seth’s 800-year Generation Cycle.
The second bond with the Antediluvian Calendar is the archaic use of the 364-day-Ethiopian-calendar. The final day-and-year single term in Seth’s 105-year primary age arises due to numerically matching with the 364-day-and-year single term. The 364-day-and-year single term was a function of nighttime, lunar-side and starlight calendar operations. Sun Kingdoms’ Calendars of the Americas exhibit similar practices according to the 104-year Venus Round. The Antediluvian Calendar cultivated spirituality of the planetary and star deities found woven into the oldest Mesopotamian cultures.
Observations involving the planet Venus allow deeper inspection of the records in chapter 5 of Genesis. Early Israelite history mixes with content drawn from celestial deities. Our Holy Bible draws a natural line connecting astronomy, astrology and calendar systems. The sun, moon, planets and stars are natural timekeepers of the cosmos.
The ancient 364-day-and-year calendar system relied upon numerical matching and simplicity. The final day of each 365-day-solar-year accumulates to make the final year in a 365-year-solar-cycle. The early Egyptian calendar and the calendar associated with the Ethiopian variation of Enoch I shared the same principles. Elements from the Mayan calendar support the 260-day-and-year divinatory single term that combines with a 364-day-and-year solar single term. Primary solar-side ages for Seth and Cainan reflect the dual relationship.
A 364-day-Ethiopian-year proliferated from Antediluvian Calendar times through the eras of Abraham, Noah and the later Judean kings. This calendar system of weeks was likely the prominent time instrument before the 17th century B.C.E. and sparingly used until late in the 2nd century B.C.E. The remaining 1.25-days every year accumulate some 364-days, plus 91-leap-days at the end of one 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle. Smaller parts of the 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle reveal familiar calendar arrangements. A 52-year Calendar Round pattern likewise multiplies by 1.25-days per year to provide 65-days and one-quarter of the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year. The 364-day-and-year single term identifies with ancient calendars.
Expansion of the ancient 364-day-and-year single term lends greater insight about time. The 1,460-year Sothic Cycle represents of cascaded time for the Egyptian Calendar. Four different passes of the 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle are equal to 1,456-years. The total 1,456-years then multiply by 1.25-days per year to find the redundant 1,456-days, plus 364-leap-days. The calculated 5-years add with 1,456-years to achieve 1,461-years. The final total is 1,461 years in the Sothic Cycle. Years having 360-days developed into the 364-day-Ethiopian or Enochian-year.
The
Egyptian Calendar included three seasons of four lunar periods each. The
The Sun Kingdom’s Calendars of the Americas modified the 1.25-day extension beyond the 364-day-Ethiopian-year to coordinate lunar-side and solar-time splits. The case for the 52-year Calendar Round, when reduced to 364-days, forms a 65-day one-quarter of the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year. Two 52-year Calendar Rounds incorporate 104-years in the Mesoamerican Calendar style. Modifying Seth’s 105-year primary age for 104-Ethiopian-years determines two 52-year Calendar Rounds that change from 104-Haab-solar-years to 104-Ethipian-years of 364-days each. Adam’s primary age is the numerically matched 130-days-and-year single term. Seth’s 105-year primary is also numerically matched using the 364-day-Ethiopian-year and consists of two separate Mayan 52-year Calendar Rounds.
Four different 52-year Calendar Rounds produce one 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year when 208-years are multiplied by 1.25-days per year. Lunar/solar separation time involving every 400-year-Baktun-cycle depends upon squaring the 19-year (Metonic) or 20-year lunar/solar cycles. An increase to 210-years l/s separation time interpolates 209-years for the doubled 105-year age of Seth. Precisely 208-years of the 364-day-Ethiopian-year multiply by 1.25-days every year to answer one 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year.
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 helical risings of Venus every 8-years in the Sun Kingdoms’ religion with motions of 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, Quetzecoatl 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. Quetzecoatl 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 in 8 years
during the period in which the earth orbits the sun 8 times. Venus passes between the earth and the sun 5
times in 8 years. Venus, in
astronomical terms, completes five synodic periods in 8 years, or 5 complete
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
The visible path of Venus simplifies below in figure 9. Venus moves counter clockwise in the drawing around the sun with the earth at the bottom. The earth is spinning on its axis while the orbit is stationary in this diagram. Venus appears on the left side of the sun as an evening star, between points A and B. On the right side of the sun, Venus is a morning star between points C and D.
A Mayan priest observer first notices Venus at point A in the west as an evening star. The sunset heliacal rising occurs slightly before sunset and represents the birth of Venus. Heliacal rising occurs on the fourth day of each synodic period of the planet. Like the sun god Ra of Egypt at dawn, Quetzecoatl begins to grow up. The moving planet spectacle grows brighter and brighter between superior and inferior conjunctions, averaging 263-days as an evening star in the west. Venus attains maximum brightness in the prime of Quetzecoatl’s life.
Venus moves rapidly near the earth at point B, which seemingly causes Quetzecoatl to die. Venus travels between the Earth and the Sun to obtain inferior conjunction with the Sun, and for a brief time Venus cannot be seen because of the brightness of the Sun. Quetzalcoatl dwells behind the sun in the underworld for 4-days. Another 4-days pass before point C, during which time legend claims the god was bony and weak. Quetzecoatl returns to the living when Venus miraculously reappears on the right side as a morning star after 8-days. Quetzecoatl resurrects full strength at point C as the rising bright morning star. He wanes in brightness until superior conjunction starts at D. The evening star that vanishes from the western sky at inferior conjunction resurfaces in the eastern sky as a morning star before sunrise. Returning gods arise from death with heavenly honors after spending time in the underworld.

The god’s journey continues 263-days more until again he disappears on the far side of the sun in the morning light. The last 50-days are spent behind the sun prior to his reemerging once again in the evening at A. From D to A is the superior conjunction 50-day interval of invisibility for Venus. Venus spends an average of about 263-days as an evening and morning star. The feathered serpentine god disappears on the near side of the sun for 8-days and on the far side for 50-days. The entire synodic cycle of Venus is 584-days. The actual orbit of Venus around the sun is 225-days.
The 104-Year Venus Round is the nucleus of the Mayan Calendar. Two 52-year Calendar Rounds include 13 different 8-solar-year periods that multiply to get the 104-Year Venus Round. The Aztec god Quetzecoatl is Kukulatin in Maya land. The Dresden Codex Venus Table depends on two 52-year Calendar Rounds having 52-Haab-solar years of 365 days each. Each table completes its total interval of 104-Haab-solar-years, or 37,960-days. Two turns of the Venus Table are equivalent to one 208-year cycle with four different 52-year Calendar Rounds.
The
260-day-tzolken-year, 365-day-Haab-year and 104-year Venus Round all
synchronize at the end of every 104-Haab-solar-years. The Venus Round of Tzolken, Haab and Venus cycle is complete when
the intervals synchronize on the senior emergence day-sign, the Sacred Day of
Venus, 1 Ahau. The beginning of the
Long Count, or the 5200-Tun-year Great Cycle, was over 3000-years ago. The star Regulus announces the 104-year
Venus Round (
Author Anthony Aveni has written numerous books about ancient civilizations and their respective calendar systems. In Empires of Time, he shifts our attention from the traditional 225-day orbit of Venus: “To know how it [584-day Venus cycle] was envisioned by the Maya, we must divest ourselves of the heliocentric posture we have acquired since the Renaissance, and learn that the 584-day Venus cycle, as far as an earth-based spectator is concerned, is really far removed from the sun-centered Venus year of Western astronomy” (1995, p. 225).
The traditional interpretation 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 Testamen 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 Merodach. 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 was equated with 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
Perhaps
the oldest known document pertaining to the 104-year Venus Cycle period is the
Venus Tablet of King Ammizaduga. The
cuneiform clay tablet is thought to include tabulated
observations of the planet Venus for some twenty-one years of Ammizaduga's
reign, 1646 to 1626 B.C.E. Tablet K 160
is dated in the 8 th century B.C.E. and thought to be a copy. The First Babylonian Dynasty king ruled with
the advice of written Omens. One famous
surviving example is called Tablet 63 or K 160), from the collection: Enuma
Anu Enlil of the
Middle
Eastern religions drew a surge of interest in the latter half of the 19 th
century from European intellectual circles.
The science of Biblical archeology was in its infancy. Two noteworthy writers, F. X. Kugler and
George Smith contributed fascinating discoveries and translations of cuneiform
tablets. F. X. Kugler (1909) published
the German two volume set: Sternkunde und Sterndienst Sterndienst in
...Venus 8
years behind thee come back...4 days thou shalt subtract...Mercury 6 years
behind thee come back...the phenomena of Mars 47 years...12 days more...shalt
thou observe...the phenomena of Saturn 59 years...come back day for day shalt
thou observe...the phenomena of Sirius 27 years...come back day for day shalt
thou observe... (p. 45).
The above
tablet from 380 B.C.E. confirms Babylonians knew synodic periods of the
planets, or wanderings stars. Similar
tablets have shown that Babylonian priest-astronomers were calculating
eclipses, synodic periods and helical risings since the 6th century B.C.E.
(History, 2004, para 1). Note two other
items: the instruction to subtract 4-days and the 27-year phenomena of
Sirius. The first is a direct
relationship to the Dresden Codex that begins the 8-year synodic period of
Venus on the fourth day following the helical rising. Sirus’ phenomena likely refer to 364-day-and-year single terms
and the concept of numerical matching.
Resurrection
allowed celestial deities to have immortal distinction. The gods, Sirius and Quetzecoatl for
example, were thought to die when they disappeared from naked eye view. Egyptian Sun god Ra died at sundown. Ra returned to the living as a child,
growing brighter and stronger as the day progresses. The story of Sirius, the “Dog Star” in Canis Major follows suit
with 70-days of invisibility every year prior to returning. The annual heliacal rising coincided with

The wide array of pan-Babylonian history has accepted inferences to the early scriptures in Genesis. Our goal is to highlight traces that provide relevant insight about Biblical calendar times, whether based in polytheism, on written tablets or authentic interpretations. Comparing mythical tales regarding astrology with hard scientific facts learned from modern astronomy may seem like a pointless endeavor to some. Sacred calendar wisdom includes somewhat flamboyant access through magical numbers and descriptions. We have to do our very best to see things from the ancient perspective.
The Antediluvian Calendar presents two-edged spiritual sword of God. On the left side of Judeo-Christianity are such topics as astrology, mythology and the broader terms concerning cosmology. A wide range of interpretation exists from strictly puritan ideals to liberal groups where just about anything goes. Divergent views can invite extremism, cult worship and express distortion of fundamental beliefs. Some religions intentionally masquerade hidden character with glistening perfection.
Toward the more conservative disciplines found within Judeo-Christianity, bitter opposition effectively denounces worship forms that suggest any connection with celestial objects. Judaism is a collective way to preserve historical knowledge and divest worship from fixed representations of God. One eternal Creator stands apart from anything else. He rules over man and women, the animals and the abode called Earth. Natural phenomena that serve as calendar instruments, like the sun, moon and Venus only glorify His amazing handiwork. Judaism vehemently opposes any hint of idol worship, including planets or stars. Any calendar enumerations are simply another aspect of created things.
Calendars allow
us to divide time into smaller parcels that we can share and understand. No matter how big the number of years gets,
we cannot grasp the concept of eternal, infinite time. We accurately count days, years and cycles
to assign time stamps. Yet, time exists
measurable and quantifiable. Christian
adherents largely follow Jewish underpinnings with realizations focused upon
the New Covenant through Jesus Christ.
Gregorian chronology before the Roman solar calendar is a slippery
slope, fraught with complication. Any
discussion turns out to be an arduous path.
Extending Gregorian dating to an accepted epoch between 8,000 B.C.E. and
4,500 B.C.E. originates Genesis near
Science is a third leg of the tripod that ultimately features hero and victim. The information explosion is a limitless frontier, unimpeded by either geographic boundaries or sovereign countries. Equipment and expertise continues to improve lives the world over. Developments in one skill carry over to different arenas. Breakthroughs in medicine and electronics disseminate globally via the Internet.
Technical science has a reputation for overlooking safety, security and the environment. Adverse recollections abound that purport technology gone awry. Various ethics and socially acceptable customs favor the friendliest and most beneficial advancements. Archeology rarely is responsible for future techniques. Calendars and time are the next exception. Discovering supernatural intervention is the challenge for the new millennium. The fact remains that all calendars need a framework that is dependent on stellar and planetary motion. Calendar science is a compilation that bridges accepted information with religious interests. People benefit by knowing God: past, present, and future.
Delving deeply into human antiquities does expose dormant knowledge. Forbidden idols and deities often symbolized calendar segments. Intention or accident may ignite distinct possibilities that instantaneously change both past and future. Chain reactions potentially can strip any event, people or thing from history. Alternate realities suddenly may occur or disappear. We stir cauldrons in the past to deliberately reach heavenly stars. Our place as mortal, fleshy people is to fear the eternal Lord.
The primary 105-year age of Seth is the candid guide to the 104-year Venus Cycle. Association of Baal, or phonetic Bel, and his female Astarte/Ishtar fertility consort, centers with astrological fervor upon Babylonian and Assyrian calendar worship. Standing stones and sacred pillars were physical artifacts designed to let observers sight heavenly bodies. A myriad of stories reveal the Sun, Moon and Venus were the Mesopotamian triad of astral worship. In ‘heaven and on earth’ was the typical feeling that matched Seth’s 105-year primary age solar-side time split, that interacts with the 400-year-Baktun-cycle, with 104-years according to the Venus Round. Venus sets forth the starlight-side time split inherent to mythical literature.
The second derivative solar-side time split by Cainan continues from first derivative solar-side time split of Seth. Demonstrated use of the Ethiopian 364-day-and-year single term involves the 104-year Venus Cycle. Cainan is the third generation following Adam and correlates the primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year age as the second derivative solar-side time split. Cainan’s daylight primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year age calculates by advancing solar-side separation time from the primary 105-Tun-year age of Seth. The same method used for Seth's solar-side primary age time derives the primary age of Cainan.
Solar-side
separation times of Seth and Cainan build one 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle
independently of the 360-year-Tun-cycle started by Adam and Enos. Consistent units of
260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years maintain the proper sequence. Three different cases of
260-year-Tzolken-cycles show tolerances for the primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year
age of Cainan. A 360- year-Tun-cycle,
the 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle (Enochian) and the more familiar
365-year-solar-cycle span the range that establishes the number of
260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years. The
360-year-Tun-cycle applies 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years.
Three options for analyzing Cainan’s primary age are the 360-Tun-year, 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle and the 365-year-solar-cycle. The 360-Tun-year cycle and the 365-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle alternatives check for maximum and minimums in evaluating the primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year of Cainan. Final 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year answers closely approximate the primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year age. The 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle prevails as the optimum choice. Whole number integers fit the principles of conversion discovered for Seth. A 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle choice gives the correct and proper answer for the Cainan’s primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year age.
Note that primary age solar-side separations of Seth and later, Cainan alternate with periods of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle. The first step is to convert the primary 105-year age of Seth into 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years. Converting the primary age of Seth from 105-Tun-years of 360-days follows the earlier outlined procedure. Equation 51 multiplies 105-years by a 360-day-Tun-year for 37,800-days in the primary age of Seth. Dividing by the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year constant converts the primary age of Seth to the minimum number 145.4-Tzolken-sacred years (Eqn. 52).
The converted maximum number of Seth’s Tzolken-sacred-year age computes by replacing 105-Tun-years with 105-solar-years of 365-days each. The same process multiplies 105-solar-years by 365-day-solar-years for 38,325-days (Eqn. 53). Dividing by 260-day-Tzolken-sacred years answers the maximum number of 147.4-Tzolken-sacred-years for the converted primary age of Seth (Eqn. 54). Cainan’s primary age depends on the conversion for Seth.
The transition pattern from Adam to Seth derives the second solar-side time split by Cainan. The minimum solution of 145.4-Tzolken-sacred-years contrasts the maximum 105-solar-year conversion to 147.4-Tzolken-sacred-years. Seth’s converted solar-side age falls between 145.4 and 147.4-Tzolken-sacred-years to complete the 365-solar-year-cycle.
Assimilated
minimum and maximum values for Seth’ primary age double and then subtract from
either the respective 360-Tzolken-sacred-year-cycle or
365-Tzolken-sacred-year-cycle. Doubling 145.4-Tzolken-sacred years mandates the answer,
290.8-Tzolken-sacred-years subtract from 360-Tzolken-sacred-years (Eqn.
55). A 360-year-Tun-cycle of
260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years minus 290.8-Tzolken-sacred-years results in
69.2-Tzolken-sacred-years for the primary age of Cainan (Eqn. 56). The minimum value for Cainan’s converted
primary age estimates 69.2-Tzolken-sacred-years
A maximum calculated age for Cainan’s primary age reckons
according to a 365-year-solar-cycle.
The case of 365-Tzolken-sacred-years matches a 365-day-solar-year. The move from Seth’s solar-side time split
to Cainan’s solar-side time split doubles 147.4-Tzolken-sacred-years to get
294.8-Tzolken-sacred-years (Eqn. 57).
Subtracting 294.8-Tzolken-sacred-years from 365-Tzolken-sacred-years
approximates 70.2-Tzolken-sacred-years for the primary age of Cainan (Eqn. 58). Seth’s use of 365-Tzolken-sacred-years subtracts
the converted and doubled, 147.4-Tzolken-sacred-year primary age. Converting two segments of 105-solar-years
having 365-days each doubles the converted primary age of Seth. The maximum estimated
70.2-Tzolken-sacred-years are approximately equal to 70-Tzolken-sacred-years
(Eqn. 59).
The 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle having 364-Tzolken-sacred-years falls between minimum and maximum values and lands on whole number integers. Equation 60 multiplies 105-Ethiopian-years by 364-days each to get 38,220-days in the converted primary age of Seth (Eqn. 60). Exactly 147-Tzolken-sacred-years are computed from 105-Ethiopian-years of 364-days each (Eqn.61).
The second derivative solar-side and starlight time split describes the primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Cainan. Twice Seth’s primary age, plus Cainan’ primary age is the total 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle that uses 364-Tzolken-sacred-years. The top of figure 5 represents Seth’s 147-Tzolken-sacred-years in green with the identical 147-Tzolken-sacred-year portion in blue. The 105-year primary age of Seth is doubled to get 210-years. The converted result likewise doubles to achieve 294-Tzolken-sacred-years (Eqn.62). Subtracting 294-Tzolken-sacred-years from 364-Tzolken-sacred-years leaves the proven answer of 70-Tzolken-sacred-years for the primary age of Cainan (Eqn.63). Cainans’s primary 70-Tzolken-sacred-year age is depicted in red at the bottom of fig. 10. The same procedure details the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle and subtracts 210-Ethiopian-years to arrive precisely at Cainan’s 70-Tzolken-sacred-years.
The solar-side 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle completes with two passes of Seth’s 105-Ethiopian-year primary age, plus Cainan’s 50-Ethiopian-year primary age. Twice Seth’s primary age is 210-Ethiopian-years. The 365-year-solar-cycle is the equivalent full conversion to 260-day-Tzolken-years. Cainan’s primary age 70-Tzolken-sacred-years returns via reverse conversion back to 50-Ethiopian-Years that have 364-days each. The calculated 70-Tzolken-sacred-years are multiplied by 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years for 18,200-days in the primary age of Cainan (Eqn. 60). Equation 61 divides Cainan’s 18,200-days primary age by 364-day-Ethiopian-years to find Cainan’s primary age. The solar-side 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle concludes with 210-Ethiopian-years that add with Cainan’s 50-Ethiopian-years to finalize two equivalent solar-side cycles: a 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle and the 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle.
The 364-day-Ethiopian-year neatly fits the Antediluvian Calendar. Closer inspection of the 364-day-Ethiopian-year reveals interesting numerical matching facts concerning this marvelous early calendar system. The primary 105-year age of Seth utilizes a 360-day-lunar-side in conjunction with the 4-day-solar-side time split that follows. The 100-days-and-years single term generates exactly 400-days of difference between 100-years of 360-days and 364-days. Concentric circles of time replicate significant patterns arising from the 400-day-and-year-single term. The 400-year-Baktun-cycle acquires further meaning related the Ethiopian 364-day-and-year-single term. Ultimately, the 800-year-Generaion-Cycle is the longest instrument gained from the Ethiopian 364-day-and-year single term calendar.
The calendar toolbox adapts to include the following items for the subsequent Antediluvian Calendar discussion.
- 400-days result from 100-years times 4-days solar-side time
split
- 400-days result from 400-years times the last, 1-day of
365-day-solar-year.
- 400-years is lunar/solar separation time and written as
400-l/s-years for each 400-year-Baktun-cycle.
- Multiple 400-year-Baktun-cycles are counted from 1 to 13 in the
Antediluvian Calendar Great Cycle.
- Relevant secondary age 400-l/s-year midpoint positions are
l/s-years in this Holy of Holies work.
- Cumulative secondary age 800-year Generation Cycles totals are
l/s-years in the Holy of Holies.
Integral calculations exist for the dual calendars of the 260-day-Tzolken-year and the 364-day-Ethiopian-year. One 50-year Jubilee cycle is equivalent to 70-Tzolken-sacred-years. Scattered mention of 70-years indicates this finite period had relevance to predefined terms of leadership. Government positions and priesthood stations were limited according to 70-year increments. The 70-day-and-year single term encompasses 70-Tzolken-sacred-years that include the primary age of Cainan.
The
ancient Egyptian Calendar began anew every 1460-year Sothic Cycle according to
the solar Julian Calendar year of 365-days.
The Egyptian Calendar was the preceding solar calendar system to the
Julian Calendar. Sothic Cycle dating
accrues 1,461-years in each cycle of the Egyptian Calendar (Hagen, 1996,
para. 3).
Annual heliacal rising of the star Sirius meant the appearance just
before dawn on the eastern horizon and the impending Nile River flood. Sirius disappears from view on the western
horizon to emerge 70-days later in the summertime.The first new moon following the Sirius
heliacal rising began the first day of the Egyptian New Year (Weininger, 1996, para. 7). The overflowing
Nile was the source of rebirth and fertility for Egyptian agriculture. Mythology dramatically reflects Sirius’
70-day invisibility period below the horizon.
Resurrection
occurring near the summer solstice during a 364-day-calendar-year attaches
connotations within the larger 1,461-year Sothic Cycle. Disappearance of Sirius beneath the western
horizon is symbolic for the death of the King.
Mummification ritual lasting 70-days was essentially part of the funeral
ceremony that imitated the god returning.
Osirus’ resurrection coincided with the star’s return every year at
heliacal rising. Deceased Pharaohs were
brought back to life through Osirus.
The same principles were in place for the helical risings of Venus every 8-years in the Sun Kingdoms’ religion. Quetzecoatl, the famous Aztec mythological figurehead, assumes his rightful place as the supreme deity. He was the Feathered Serpent that revived the dried bones of old dead by sprinkling his blood on them. Quetzecoatl or Venus was the morning star god of vegetation and fertility. Life and the visible starlight opposed death, darkness and invisibility below the horizon.
Lunar/solar
math applied here involves the process of numerically matching
70-days-and-years in a single term. The
70-days-and-years single term combines with 70-Tzolken-sacred-years and
associated conceptions about the underworld.
The Antediluvian Calendar doubles the primary age, expressed either as
364-day-Ethipian-years or 260-day-Tzolken-sacred years. A 364-year-Ethiopian-cycle, consisting of
364-Tzolken-sacred years, has 294-Tzolken-sacred-years subtracted in equation 63. The result is the matched
70-Tzolken-sacred-year era for the primary age of Cainan.
Venus and
Sirius have intervals of absent starlight from the gods. Venus has a lapse of about 50-days that was
occasionally recorded by the Mayans with deviations lasting up to 90-days. The Mayans divided the 8-days inferior
conjunction into two separate periods of 4-days each. The second 4-day part had extraordinary meaning in that
Quetzecoatl was bony, or some legends alternatively claim he brought the bones
of the dead back to life when he resurrected as a bright morning star. The latter anecdote closely matches Egyptian
beliefs regarding Sirius reviving the Pharaohs following his 70-day lapse
before heliacal rising every year. The
last 4-days after 360-days every year are an important clue to Sothic dating.
Dr.
Simpson (2005, para.2.) includes a translated portion of the cuneiform script
at his website that reads:
“In the
month Nisan, on the twenty-seventh day, Ninsianna disappeared in the west; she
remained absent from the sky for seven days; in the month Ayar, on the third
day, Ninsianna appeared in the east …”.
Ninsianna is the cosmic deity Venus. The month, Nisan was followed by the month Adar. An 8-day period of inferior conjunction, as
opposed to the written 7-day is a distinct possibility when we consider
Babylonian and Jewish sources traditionally changed the days at sunset within
the sacred 7-day week.
Assyrian records provide vital traces defining Mesopotamian
chronology back to about 1200 B.C.E.
There are several cuneiform tablets dating from the 7-8 century
B.C.E. The copied text of the cuneiform
tablet below (figure 11) is from earlier tablets that probably date from the
16th century B.C.E. Babylonian
chronology is a topic prone to scholarly debate. A high, middle and low chronology currently exists depending on
whom you read (Roaf,
1990, p 123). By the 8th century B.C.E., Babylonian and
Assyrian priest-astronomers had charted the heliacal risings of five
planets. Mercury, Venus, Mars and
Jupiter were always important to astrology and mythology.

References to the Inanna/Eanna Temple, the residence of
Ishtar, support opinions favoring the Mayan 8-year Venus cycle and the 104-year
Venus Round calendar tools in Mesopotamia at this early time. The Star of Ishtar was prevalent in the
worship of the Festival of Ishtar. The
festival took place to celebrate the spring, vernal equinox near March 21
today. Rebirth and fertility were
predominant post winter themes that gradually mutated into the pagan Eoster
celebration.
Many other tablets exist such as the ‘Epic of Gilgamesh’ from ancient
Worship of the planetary deities is positive before the
Deluge.
The translation of Tablet
I by Kovacs (1998) indicates Anu, King of the Sumerian-Babylonian pantheon and
god of heaven and earth, taught Gilgamesh the Creation story before the Deluge.
“Anu granted
him the totality of knowledge of all.
He saw the
Secret, discovered the Hidden,
he brought
information of (the time) before the Flood.”
Multiple
104-year Venus Rounds arrange the later primary ages for the Antediluvian
Calendar system. Two 52-year Calendar
Rounds make one 104-year Venus Round that identifies with Biblical Seth’s 105-year primary
age. Since 5-Venus Rounds of 584-day
each make 8-Haab-solar-years, or 2,920-days, there is a natural connection with
the Egyptian Calendar. O’Sirus, meaning
‘of Sirius lore,’ has obvious roots manifest with heliacal risings. Sirius sojourns in the underworld 70-days
between heliacal setting and the next heliacal rising during the course of one
365-day-Haab-solar-year. Planet Venus
shares the Mayan god name Kukulakan and later,
Quetzecoatl. Earthbound viewers cannot
see Quetzecoatl during two separate invisible times. Venus is elapsed for 8-days on the near side of the sun and for
50-days on the far side of the sun during an 8-Haab-solar-year orbit. Nearly identical mythology regarding the
afterlife and resurrection agree.
Jewish
and Ethiopian annual calendars branched from the trunk line 364-day base. Supplementary 104-year Venus Round measurements
permit adapting the 364-day unit to the Sun Kingdoms calendar system. Architecture at the Chicten Itza ceremonial

Introducing
the 364-day-and-year single term together with the 104-year Venus-Round brings
revelation. Jewish, Ethiopian, Egyptian
and Sun Kingdoms’ Calendar systems utilize the 364-day annual calendar base and
the Venus Round together in one capacity or another. Incorporate now the numerical matching properties that use
364-days-and-years in a single term.
New perspectives for the 1,461-day leap cycle and the numerical
companion 1,461-year Sothic Cycle are provided by five heliacal risings of
Venus that occur over the 8-year period.

Computations expanding
the 8-year Venus orbit to cover 50 cycles entered the Antediluvian Calendar
pattern. A fixed 400-year-Baktun-cycle
from the Mayan Calendar is easily divisible by the 8-year interval marked by 5
synodic periods of Venus. In this work,
we will identify the five synodic orbits of Venus by the term 5-Venus-set. Hence, there are 50-cycles of the
5-Venus-sets over the course of 8-years.
Each Mayan adaptation of the 5-Venus-set includes 2,920-days (8 x
365-day-Haab-solar-years) that most scholars recognize for Venus. The Mesopotamian cultures likely counted
according to the 1,461-day leap cycle.
The 1,461-day leap cycle inclusion adjusts the 5-Venus-set by merely
2-days more for 2,922-days and closer to the figure quoted by modern
astronomy. The 8-year Venus cycle was
segment of the lunar/solar calendar present in
Venus is the final tie
needed to resolve the lunar/solar Antediluvian Calendar of Genesis 5. Examining 100-moon-months of l/s separation
time in the 8-year lunar/solar style applies the original time split tool that
divides time by 2. The lunar-side is
50-moon-months and the solar-side is also 50-moon-months. Jewish 50-year Jubilee Cycles are the
numerical factor granted by 50-cycles of the 5-Venus-sets. Eight 50-year Jubilee Cycles are evident in
the Mayan 400-year Baktun-cycle.
Numerically matching 50 Venus-sets with 50-year Jubilee Cycles and
50-moon-months predicated later developments.
Numerical
matching plays the role combining 50-Venus-cycles of 8-year Venus sets with
50-year Jubilee Cycles over the same 400-year-Baktun-cycle. The result enables
a 105-year Venus Round that multiplies by the 364-day-Ethiopian-year. The total number of Venus Round days, and
the converted 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year age reduces from 147-Tzolken-sacred-years
to 146-Tzolken-sacred-years. One
260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year less than 37,960-days is 37,820-days. The 8-Haab-solar-years of 365-days in the
Mayan Calendar change to 8-Ethiopian-years of 364-days in the Antediluvian
Calendar. An isolated, matched 8-days
of inferior conjunction are set aside.
The 8-day interval is “not counted in the regular computation of the
year.”
Two
52-year Calendar Rounds reckon 104-Haab-solar-years or twice 73
Tzolken-sacred-years for 146-Tzolken-sacred-years (Eqn. 49). A converted primary age
146-Tzolken-sacred-years for Seth falls between estimates of
145.4-Tzolken-sacred-years, and 147.4-Tzolken-sacred-years. The same 146-Tzolken-sacred years describe a
converted primary age of Seth that doubles to achieve 292-Tzolken-sacred-years
(Eqn. 50). The 52-year Calendar Round
quadruples with 292 Tzolken-sacred-years.
Subtracting
this averaged 292 Tzolken-sacred-year, doubled primary age of Seth from a 365
Tzolken-sacred-year period computes for 73 Tzolken-sacred-years to match another
52-year Calendar Round (Eqn. 51).
Allotting two 73 Tzolken-sacred-year periods for Seth to detail the
primary 105-year age of Seth, four 73-Tzolken-sacred-year periods comprise the
210-year doubling of Seth's primary age.
At the time of begetting Mahalaleel, the 52-year Calendar Round
quadruples for 208-Ethiopian-years. A
fifth 73-Tzolken-sacred year segment, and the fifth 52-solar-year Calendar
Round, both equal the converted 365-Tzolken-sacred-years and the par value,
260-year Tzolken-sacred cycle (Eqn. 52, and Eqn. 53).
Figure 14
explains the second lunar/solar time split of Cainan. Figure 10 is a graphic demonstration that advances the first
derivative, solar-side time split from Seth in Ages of Adam. The left moon side represents the lunar side
40 multiples of common 20-year cycle or an 800-year Generation Cycle. The right sun circle shows the opposing
800-years obtained from the solar-side of the same period. The 105-year primary age of Seth converts to
147-Tzolken-sacred-years using the 364-day-Ethiopian-year (XX). The converted, primary
147-Tzolken-sacred-year age of Seth is doubled to make 294-Tzolken-sacred-years
in equation 62. Subtracting from
365-Tzolken-sacred-years in figure 10 and equation 63 resulted in
70-Tzolken-sacred-years for the calculated primary age of Cainan. Cainan’s primary age
70.2-Tzolken-sacred-years approximate from 364-Tzolken-sacred-years using the
364-day-Ethiopian-year. The last 4-days
are the quarterly, archangel daystars that add with the 360-day-Tun-year. Cainan’s 70-Tzolken-sacred-year primary age
value is the green section of figure 10 and the equation 63.
Figure 14
summarizes the escalation from the 105-year primary age of Seth to the 70-Tzolken-sacred-year
age of Cainan.. The 1,460-day-and-year
single term of Sirius is exactly half of the matched 2,920-day-and-year single
term discovered for the 104-year Venus Round.
Four Sirius cycles of 365-days each are equal to five Venus synodic
periods of 584-days each. Sirius and
Venus have meshed heliacal risings known to ancient astronomers. The 2:1 ratio proportionally compares
2922-days in the 104-year Venus Round to the accurate 1,461-day leap cycle for
Osirus.
The
52-year Calendar Round of the Sun Kingdom's Calendars supports earlier
calculations for Seth. Doubling
1,820-days extra for 3,640 days adds 14-Tzolken-sacred-years of
15-Tzolken-sacred-years to an 800-year Generation Cycle. The repeated 800-year Generation-Cycle
portion is included as part of the secondary 815-year age of Enos (Eqn. 29). The last fifteenth Tzolken-sacred-year
follows from 1-Tzolken-sacred-year after 104 years of 365-days, or
37,960-days. One
260-day-Tzoken-sacred-year is the difference between 104-Haab-solar-years of
365-days each (37,960-days), and 105-Ethiopian-year of 364-days each
(38220-days). The fifteenth
Tzolken-sacred-year combines to total 3,900 days more than an 800-year
Generation Cycle for the secondary age of Enos (Eqn. 31). The Egyptian epagomenal 5-days beyond 360-days per year multiply by 52 years to
obtain one 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year, which becomes the last of
73-Tzolken-sacred-years in a 52-year Calendar Round. Two 52-year Calendar Rounds equal the 104-year Venus Round that
accumulates one additional 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year by substituting
105-Ethiopian-years having 364-days.
Cainan's
given 70-Tzolken-sacred-year is 3-Tzolken-sacred-years less than one converted
52-year Calendar Round. The assigned
solar-side separation for Cainan remains after twice Seth’s
147-Tzolken-sacred-years (Eqn. 54).
The primary age of Seth and the first solar side division, is doubled to
derive Cainan’s primary 70-year age and the second generation of solar-side
separation time. Cainan is the second
derivative, solar-side time split.
