The primary age for Adam reports 360-day-Tun-years.  Seth’s primary 105-Ethiopic-year age measures 364-day-Ethiopic-years that acknowledge solar-side reckoning.  The third and fourth characters, Enos and Cainan, list their primary ages in 260-day-Tzolken-years.  Mahalaleel and Jared form the next pair of primary ages.  Mahalaleel and Jared are the fifth and sixth characters in a pair together.  The primary ages for Mahalaleel and Jared switch back to 360-day-Tun-years.

The 365-year-solar-cycle had similar divisions influencing the Antediluvian Calendar.  A 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle was followed 100-years later by the 360-year-Tun-cycle.  The last 5-years of the 365-year-solar-cycle had both 4-year and single year elements attached.  Numerical matching X-number of days to X-number of years was the recurrent theme of the Antediluvian Calendar.

Adam’s primary 130-Tun-year age using 360-day-Tun-years finishes after the first secondary age 400-year-Baktun-cycle.  Midpoint age levels in the secondary 800-year Generation Cycle coincide with the end of the respective primary age for each character.  The second 400-year-Baktun-cycle in the secondary age category completes the first 800-year Generation Cycle.  Four 65-year parts constitute one total 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  The primary 130-year age of Adam lasts for two 65-Tun-year portions.  The primary age category 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle begins with Adam, includes Enos and completes with the primary 65-Tun-year age of Mahalaleel.  Solar-side time splits by Seth, Cainan and Jared alternate character primary ages in a separate solar-side primary age category 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle.  Exchanges between 260-day-Tzolken-years and 360-day-Tun-years occur throughout the genealogy of Antediluvian Patriarchs.



All primary age situations were marked according to 400-year-Baktun-cycles.  The first 400-year-Baktun-cycle determines the primary age.  The halfway, midpoint position during every 800-year Generation Cycle is the end of the character’s primary age.  The secondary age category continues by adding the second 400-year-Baktun-cycle to finish the 800-year Generation Cycle.  One 800-year Generation Cycle adds for each character in the secondary age category.  Thirteen 400-year-Baktun-cycles make up the entire 5200-year Great Cycle for the genealogy.

Several partitions in the year and different types of cycles existed simultaneously in a complex pattern of calendar eschatology.  The 365-day-solar-year divides according to a 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year, and 100-days later, a 360-day-Tun-year.  Five days at the end of the 365-day-solar-year had a 4-day component that imparts the presiding day-star notion for each 91-day quarter in the 364-day-calendar-year.  One final day at the end of the year numerically matches multiples of years.

Partitions of the 365-day-solar-year and the matched 365-year-solar-cycle elaborate regular ancient calendar divisions.  The 260-day and-year, 360-day-and-year, plus four or 5-day-and-year single terms fulfill named Mayan segments.  A phrase glossary is included to supplement the calendar toolbox list from Ages of Adam.

 



Lunar/solar separation times bisect time measurements for the 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-year and the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle in the later Antediluvian sequence.  Mayan 260-day-Tzolken-sacred-years differentiate from 360-day-Tun-years by 100-days.  The 100-days-and-years single term has a bearing upon this relationship.  The 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle and the 360-year-Tun-cycle are separate by 100-years.  Shared resources differentiate two different major time cycles of the Antediluvian Calendar by 100-days and 100-years.  Later calendar systems and essential religious texts recognized the 100-days-and-years single term significance in alternative ways.

The Antediluvian parent calendar branched into four major calendar systems.  Egyptian and Mayan calendars group the last 5-days-and-years single term with chosen numerical matching philosophies.  The traditional Jewish Calendar eventually settled with the Metonic 19-year lunar/solar cycle.  The fourth system is the comparable 364-day-calendar-year.  Characteristic roles generate the parallel use of a 364-year-cyle that highlights a single day-and-year numerical identity.  Documentation relating to an Enochian sect and mysterious Qumran community may be traceable to much older beginnings.  The Book of Enoch and the Book of Jubilees are included in the Ethiopic Narrower Canon between Deuteronomy and Joshua.  The Egyptian 1,460-year Sothic Cycle underscores a slightly altered branch of solar calendar development.
 
Fifty years in the ancient Jewish Jubilee and 52-years in the Mayan Calendar have similar religious and numerical connotations.  Two 50-year Jubilee Cycles make 100-years and two 52-year Calendar Rounds add to detail 104-years.  A 364-day-calendar-year sections the 360-day-Tun-year and saved the remaining 4-days for later.  The final capstone day proves the basis for numerically matching days to years.  Four quadrant divisions of a matched 360-year-Tun-cycle draw almost universally from ancient theology.  Nearly every civilization, old or new, recognizes the two equinoxes and two solstices with spiritual affinity.

Building the Antediluvian series required marvelous command of astronomy and mathematics.  Accepted Mayan Calendar practices overlay the oldest and most prestigious calendar scale in human history.  Character primary and secondary ages seem like chambers attached to a grand hallway.  Indeed, halls and corridors grace the realms occupied by spirits.  Genesis is the great cathedral to God under heavenly canopy and the refuge accessible only through dreams and visions, birth and death.

Are you a pastor, educator or a student of the Holy Bible?  Timeemits.com seeks anointed people to review and contribute to the Ages_of_Adam ministry.  Ancient lunar/solar calendars like the Jewish and Mayan calendars provide the background to understanding early time.  Ancient calendars of the Holy Bible use differences between the moon and sun, numerical matching and a 364-day calendar year to describe X-number of days that match with X-number of years.  Ages_of_Adam is a free read at timeemits.
