GER SAP, LEI TAC, MUC CRA, AMA CED

Upon entering the Lascaux cave one saw a composite
animal with the bearded head of a man, a pair of
lances growing as horns out of his front, with the
forelegs and mottled hide of a feline, the hind legs
and hind body of a bison, and the belly of a pregnant
mare: www.seshat.ch/home/menhir6f.JPG This
animal may convey a message to an aspiring ruler:
Make a wise use of your weapons (which is the
reason why the lances grow as horns out of the
front of the male head), be patient, quick and decided
as a feline, strong as a bull, and caring as a mother ...

CER means stag, GER may be a lateral association
for spear, lance, SAP means everywhere in three
dimensions, experienced, wise. LEI is an attacking
lion, TAC may be a word for the way a lion behaves.
MUC is a bison, CRA means strong. AMA is the
word for mother, CED the word for to care. Now
we can translate the above picture into Magdalenian:

GER SAP, LEI TAC, MUC CRA, AMA CED



Glossary of the new Magdalenian words, part 38

My reconstruction of the lunisolar calendar of
Lascaux from last year led me to an experimental
reconstruction of Magdalenian. Now my linguistic
work of this year led me to a late Magdalenian
calendar:

IAS 1-36 (January 9 till February 13), coldest
time of the year, when many get ill, hence IAS
for healing

CED 1-37 (February 14 till March 22), a time
when the provisions get scarce and people
have to care for each other, hence CED for
to care; the spring equinox occurs by the end
of this period (March 21)

PhON 1-36 (March 23 till June 3), spring comes,
a lot of noise and bustle in the camp, hence
PhON for noise

DKO 1 - 37 (April 28 till June 3), time when one
can leave the winter camp, hence DKO for the
walls and roof of the tent or hut one can leave,
perhaps with a ceremony

PAS 1 - 36 (June 4 till July 9), time when one
roams the land, hence PAS for everywhere
(in a plain); midsummer occurs in the middle
of this period (June 21)

SAI 1 - 37 (July 10 till August 15), warmest time
of the year, lovely summer, hence SAI for life,
existence (inverse of IAS)

SAP 1 - 36 (August 16 till September 20), the
world in more dimensions, hence SAP for all
the places in the world: here, south and north
of me, east and west of me, under and above
me (inverse of PAS), origin of September

OKD 1 - 37 (September 21 - October 27), time
for to build a winter camp, or to renovate the
old one, hence OKD for the ground plan of a
tent or hut (inverse of DKO), origin of October;
the autumn equinox occurs by the begin of
this period (September 23)

NOPh 1 - 36 (October 28 till December 2),
time of the first snow, hence NOPh for to snow
(inverse of PhON), origin of November

DEC 1 - 37 (December 3 till January 8), time
one spends in the camp and has to behave,
hence DEC for decent (inverse of CED),
origin of December; midwinter occurs in the
middle of this period (December 21)

A year has 365 regular days and requires
one leap day every fourth year.
