Description: Seven extra lunar months were the chosen standard practice that matched with the seven-day week. Middle Eastern calendars likely intercalated 7-months as 209-days of l/s separation time. The 360-day length of year was common in very early prehistory. Extending the single l/s calendar year to the Mayan “katun” 20-year multiple of the l/s calendar continues exactly this fundamental, approximate intercalation of 210-days. Any l/s calendar year of 360-days balances the difference between lunar years and solar years. The outcome is time split to become 105-days each for the lunar-side and solar-side.

Splitting of Time - 7
Intercalary Months
Lunar/solar calendar intercalary
months varied in name and precise length.
However, seven extra lunar months were the chosen standard practice that
matched with the seven-day week. The
moon's light divides in darkness according to seven-day periods for the four
phases of the moon, and seven intercalary months divided lunar years from solar
years in the 19-year cycle of the Jewish calendar. These early people had to know planting and
harvesting times for the crops they raised in order to survive. Agriculture was the major source of food
production for early culture. The Jewish
Calendar's Feast of First Fruits is one of the
most celebrated worship festivals of the Bible. Linked to the Christian New Testament Pentecost, this celebration is a
focal point for all Judeo-Christianity.
Feasts and festivals associated
with farming in other cultures used a sacred-year. Agrarian societies often depended upon a
sacred-year having 260-days. Intercalary
days, a 360-day-civil-year, and the 260-day-sacred-year were integral to the
calendars of early prehistory. These
differing types of years were the common denominators for most lunar/solar
calendars. Ancient calendar discovery begins
with fundamental calendar tools.
The
The 360-day length of year was common
in very early prehistory. For example,
Hindu chronology once used a year of 360-days for historical computations. Generally, five-special-days then add to
complete the solar year. Using 30-days
for a month was common with the sun moving for six months or 180-days to the
north, and for same number of days to the south. Ancient
360
Day Midpoint between Lunar/Solar Years
The concept of a time split calendar tool is actually very old. Lunar/solar calendars split time at the 360-day mark for every single 1-year. The ancient idea of God dividing daylight and darkness into day and night expands to God dividing "lunar-time" and "solar-time." The lunar-side time split happened after twelve full lunar months. In whole numbers, another five or sometimes six-days were required to reach the 360-day midpoint length of year. The Mayan Calendar names the 360-day-calendar-year “Tun” (pronounced toon). My work with ancient calendars at timeemits.com applies hyphenated phrases such as 360-day-Tun-year to improve reading clarity.
The time split tool can find the
midpoint of any time parameter. Ancient
calendar terminology often doubled and divided known numerical periods. In effect, we are “reverse engineering” some
aspects of the ancient calendars. Mayan
cosmology divided the universe and time(s) into four
equal quadrants. Ancient people observed
both lunar and solar aspects of the heavens.
The total lunar/solar difference between the two types of years amounts
to ten or eleven days every year. Whole
number integers were the norm. The
Jewish Calendar adapts 11-days of intercalation per
year. The Mayan and related Sun
Kingdoms' calendars average about 10.5-days of lunar/solar separation time
every year.
Intercalary gaps sub-divide into lunar/solar separation time or time splits. Time splits serve to define a lunar-side of time and a solar-side of time. The first time split case for a 360-day single year occurs in equations 1-3. The abbreviation “-l/s-” indicates lunar/solar time. Longer lunar/solar calendars advance the time split tool concept with multiples of years. Figure 1 shows the first time split case for a 360-day single year. Longer lunar/solar calendars advance the time split tool concept with multiples of years. Accrued intercalary days are respective multiples of the original single year time split. Only the number values change with later intercalations. The same time split design illustrates that more l/s cycles have occurred. A 20-year-l/s-cycle in figure 2 uses the same approach. The natural convenience of splitting time at the 360-day mark in any year happens seen for greater cycles.
Any l/s
calendar year of 360-days balances the difference between lunar years and solar
years. The lunar-side time split in
equation 1 approximates the lunar year with 12-moon-months. The solar-side time split is beyond the
360-day central midpoint between lunar and solar years. The lunar-side time split subtracts 5.25-days
of lunar-side separation time to arrive at 354.75-days in the generalized
pattern of lunar/solar calendar development (Eqn 1). A solar-side time split adds 5.25-days after
360-days to arrive at 365.25-days (Eqn. 3).

Solar-Side Time

+ 5.25 days for solar-year
= 365.25 day-solar-year
The average 10.5-days of lunar/solar separation time calculate in equation 2. A 10.5-day lunar/solar Separation time is the wider ranging application in ancient calendars. Multiples of 360-day-Tun-years utilize the time-split tool by yielding 10.5-days for every single (1) year. Extending the single l/s calendar year to the Mayan “katun” 20-year multiple of the l/s calendar continues exactly this fundamental, approximate intercalation. About 10.5 days of l/s time split add to the lunar year having 12-moon-months to arrive at the estimated solar year for l/s calendars.

equinoxes and solstices, and significant points during the year there are
immeasurable changes. A type of venturi

dimension responds to these changes, whether they occur on Sunday mornings or
on Friday nights. Clocks and calendars

The sun-side picture in figure 1 references a solar-side time split that adds 5.25-days after 360-days. The ancient Egyptian Calendar and the Sun Kingdoms’ calendars specifically associate with a solar-side time split resulting in 365.25 days. The sun-side of lunar/solar calendars includes our modern leap day fraction for the purpose of this discussion. Equation 7 concludes the figure 1 diagram for every single (1) year of the l/s calendar.
10.5-Days Time Split Every Year Figure 1
Ten-and-one-half days compare with eleven days to separate lunar and solar lengths of a year. Adjusting the lunar year to 354-days for computations and dividing by 12-lunar-months makes each lunar month about 29.5-days long. A 29.5-day length of month was very close to the actual 29.53-day-month and often approximated to a 30-day-lunar-month. The 29.5-day-month may have been interchangeable with lunar months of 30-days. Twelve lunar months of 30-days each amount to 360-days and establish the basic 360-day midpoint supposition behind early calendars. The given 360-day-Tun-year is the midpoint between lunar years and solar years. Both lunar and solar years evenly balance at the 360-day midpoint. The 360-day fulcrum midpoint evenly divides lunar-sides and solar-sides of the calendar.
Cultures worldwide largely
identified with dual concepts of a feminine, lunar-side and a masculine,
solar-side to time. The masculine
solar-side of reckoning allocates solar-side periods. Male deities had female counterparts. For example, the Egyptian Osiris pairs with
Masculine notation implies the parallel solar-side time split 5.25-day addition to a 360-day-Tun-year. The solar year approximates to 365.25 days here. Solar-side time split amounts 5.25-days of difference between a 360-day midpoint length of year and a modern year having 365.25-days. Past calendars sometimes included our modern leap day fraction of about one-quarter day per year. The ancient propensity to assign masculine, sun-side and feminine, moon-side characteristics to lunar/solar intercalations exaggerates for the greater 20-year-l/s-cycle.
Understanding the 10.5-days of lunar/solar time split is instrumental to lengthy l/s calendar recording. Lunar/solar separation time split measuring 10.5-days per year builds in multiples that respect cycles of years. One multiple of a 20-year-l/s-cycle produces 210-days of l/s separation time. Equation 4 multiplies 10.5-days of l/s separation time by a 20-year cycle to arrive at 210-days of l/s separation time. Approximating 209-days of l/s separation time to 210-days of time split expands the 19-year lunar/solar cycle to a 20-year-l/s-cycle. Attributing half of lunar/solar separation to either feminine or masculine time is analogous to languages that have masculine and feminine genders of words. A word in a sentence must respond according to principles of grammar and meaning. Developing the dual feminine/masculine gender emphasizes ancient notions of time. Calendar science is a matter of style and application that describe units of time.
Alignment with calendar tools includes a feminine/masculine duality and reinforcement of the sacred number seven. Seven-days of the week reference the monthly fertility issue. Numerically matching 7-intercalary-months reinforces 7-day-weeks in the 20-year l/s cycle. The equivalent 210-days of l/s separation time result from seven 30-day-months (Eqn. 5). Equation 6 employs the divide by two, time split tool to show equal halves of 105-days each for the lunar-side and solar-side of a 20-year-lunar/solar-cycle.

L/S Time
Central and South American people
such as the Maya, Inca and Aztecs commonly approximated these same 209-days of
lunar/solar separation time to be 210-days, or seven even months of 30-days
each following 19-years of recognition.
The twentieth year offered the next building block to time
progression. The twentieth year of the
lunar/solar calendar marks the time split that cuts 210-days in half (Eqn.
6). The lunar-side time split is
105-days in equation 7. Lunar-side separation
time was feminine for years up to and including 360-day-Tun-years (Eqn.
1). The solar-side time split assigns
105-days to the male solar-side of the calendar (Eqn. 8). Ancient theology supporting the 20-year
lunar/solar cycle supplies two equal halves of 105-days. Masculine and feminine genders describe the
time splits according to layers. The
female/male time analogy naturally results in the next offspring layer. The calendar measures by documenting
generations. The fundamental 20-year
lunar/solar system results in 210-days of lunar/solar separation time. The outcome is time split to become 105-days
each for the lunar-side and solar-side.
Babylonian influence during the time of Ezra gave names to the months. Hebrews originally numbered the months. Masculine and feminine energies impart or strengthen from nearby cultures. The 19-year-l/s-cycle mixed with Jewish holiday periods and the 50-year Jubilee sequence. The total number of intercalary days varied to be either 209-days or 210-days. Some cultures even changed the calendar days at dawn. Two and one-half 20-year-l/s-cycles are equal to one 50-year Jubilee Cycle. The same number of intercalary days would apply for 525-days l/s separation time.
Middle Eastern calendars likely
intercalated 7-months as 209-days of l/s separation
time. Jewish, Babylonian and nearby
sub-cultures were more nomadic. Precise
solar calculations logically took place in the lasting cities of

360-Day
Midpoint of 20-Year L/S Cycle
Every twentieth year of 365-days
had two basic components: 105-days of sun-side time and the other portion of
260-days. Sun Kingdoms' Calendars
commonly used numerical matching to describe these two distinct, recurrent
yearly elements having 105-days and 260-days.
Archaeologists call the Mayan agricultural 260-day period a ritual
Tzolken-year. This work will use the
260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year as basis for calculations. The 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year began and
ended on the same days within a 365-day normal solar year.
There are nuances of difference between the Sun Calendars and those of
the
Shades of Egyptian mythology are contained in the lore of
Quetzalcoatl. The resurrection story
claims Quetzalcoatl was a ruling deity who traveled to the east to found a new
empire. When he died, Venus appeared as
a star to become the lord of dawn. A full
cycle of visibility is complete in 584 days.
The Dresden Venus Table records five full cycles in Maya calendar
language to arrive at 2,920-days or 8-solar-years. The Dresden Codex is an elaborate document
that mixes Mayan astronomy with the astrology.
