Glossary of the new Magdalenian words, part 17
The name of Poseidon is not yet understood, so
I propose PAS TON, the one who gets everywhere
and makes himself heard; Poseidon was originally
the god of the Eurasian rivers, he created the horse,
and he was the earth-shaker.
The Hebrew name Nathan means: God gave. The
original meaning could have been: NOT TON, the one
who knows and makes himself heard, the one who
speaks out of a divine inspiration, out of the inner
knowledge God gave him ...
Now it's time for a story in Magdalenian. A young
professor of paleo-linguistics goes on a time-travel
to Lascaux, arrives there in the spring of 14,681 BC,
meets a lovely young woman, takes a few lessons
in Magdalenian, then he meets her parents and
greets them as follows:
OC LIC ABA SARA, OC LIC AMA SA RAA,
OC LIC MA OC. Mm NOT TON, LIL MmOS TA,
GID GID ABA, GIS GIS AMA, SAI SAI ...
OC means eye and I (ego), LIC means light and luck,
OC LIC means I see light, I am pleased. MA OC means
my darling, my eye, apple of my eye; OC LIC MA OC
means I love you, TA means your. Imperatives or
wishing forms are given by doubling a word. What he
says is then: Im a pleased to meet you, father of Sarah,
I am pleased to meet you, mother of Sarah, (and, toward
Sarah:) I love you. I myself am a teacher, I desire your
daughter, give her to me, father of Sarah, bless us,
mother of Sarah, be it so, be it so ...

LEI IEL, EIL LIE, ILE ELI --- attack of a lion, pronounce
the words with a clicking L
LEI or )EI --- attacking lion; ancient Greek leo and lys
for lion, leianno leiano for I crush, bruise, destroy
IEL or IE) --- to shout and yell when one sees a lion,
throwing stones and spears at a lion, still yelling
(onomatopoetic); ancient Greek iaelo for I send, throw,
iakho for I shout
EIL or EI) --- to hide from a lion; ancient Greek eilyo

ILE or I)E --- to be spared by a lion; ancient Greek ilaemi

ELI or E)I --- to rest, and thank for having been spared;
ancient Greek elynio for I rest, give up
Eli would then have been the one who can avert a lion:
the Lord who delivered David from the paw of the lion,
then from the paw of the bear, then from the hand of
Goliath. Daniel can be read as DA IEL --- freed from
having to yell: the Lord saved him and the wise men
of Babylon from Arioch's men, and he delivered Daniel
from the lions in the den. The Hebrew name means:
God is my judge - God judged Daniel, found him worthy,
and saved him twice.
AChI LEI --- swelling water (achi) attacking lion (lei),
possible origin of Achilleus
Glossary of the new Magdalenian words, part 14
The name of David seems to be a problem of Hebrew
philology. We may read it as DA PAD, away from (da)
activity of feet (pad), delivered from the paw of the lion,
delivered from the paw of the bear, delivered from the
hand of Goliath, delivered from the paw of that brutish
and towering Philistine.
Words from last year: GHI for the cry of the seagull,
meaning a bird in general; SHA for a ruler over an
expanse of land with water AC, together GHI SH'AC
for the birdman as the supreme ruler. This title may
survive in Isaac. The son of Isaac was Ja'aqob Jacob,
which name may be a form of SHA AC, consider also
that the ruler of the province of Judah was a sagan.
In a dream, Jacob saw a ladder to the sky, the Lord
on top of the ladder, in an aureole we may assume,
speaking to him. Jacob's byname was Israel. In this
name we may find AS RAA EL, to the shining Lord
above. EL would be a survivor of clicking L, a very
old word for the chief, the lion man, the one who could
take it up with a lion, the one who had the say. Leo
leonoe Loewe lion, logos for word, reason. The L
survives in English Lord, the precursor of Baal was
El, Eli is the God of Israel, Allah the God of the Muslims.
Four words from last year, with a clicking L: LOG or
)OG for word, reason, having the say; GOL or GO)
for the cavity of the mouth; GLO or G)O for the sacred
utterances of a shaman in a trance; OLG or O)G for holy,
Old English haleg and holeg, German heilig, female
given name Olga from a Scandinavian word meaning
holy.
-: I -: (lip lick, produce the sound given as -: by touching
both lips with the tip of the tongue), derivates LIL LIB
BIB DD --- forms of desire; ancient Greek lilaeomai for
to desire, Latin and English libido, Latin bibi for I drink
(thirst being a powerful desire), Ugaritic DD for loved,
beloved (Cyrus H. Gordon), Minoan Dadu for loved by
(Walther Hinz), Dido for the loved one
The name of Delilah can be explained in a similar way
as the one of David: DA LIL, delivered from her desire,
satisfied, in the case of the biblical Delilah freed from
her desire to know the secret of Samson's power and
strength - he fooled her three time, then he told her the
truth (Hebrew meaning of Delilah: she who longs for).
