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
