IO 6-7 - ETA

No. 7  

                              

ETA

 

 

This symbol can also be depicted, thus –

ie

In English, this symbol -

is pronounced -             HAITCH

 

 

I don’t know if this was a shape that was easily visible from the sky,

but, I think it may describe the inside form of a house    HATCH  –

 

eg.

This was a common feature, and may have been a unique characteristic,

of dwellings in the settlement of ancient    Catalhoyuk,    in Southern Turkey –

See -  “Dwellings at Catalhoyuk”

The house hatch was usually positioned over the area where the cooking stove was,

to act as a flue: an opening where the smoke from the cooking fire could escape easily,

without filling up the room –

See -  “Dwellings at Catalhoyuk”

Because of this, the    HATCH    could also have been associated with

 

           ETA            ie.,      EAT    A    (THING)

 

And, maybe,

 

                                         HEAT    A    (THING)              ie.    COOKING

 

Also,    

 

            CATALHOYUK            ie.,      CATTLE    HOYUK

 

is known to have been involved in grazing livestock.

 

Cattle horns (mounted)  -

 

had been found, adorning the interior walls of some of the houses.

If anyone has worked on a cattle property,

then they would know that these are valued trophies,

retained from the animal after butchering it,

and polishing them up to be displayed with pride in their house,

(or on the bull-bar of their 4WD or truck, etc.)

 

So, I would say that,

this was the main thing that was being cooked on the stove.

 

And that,

                        CATALHOYUK   

 

is most probably the centre that is symbolised by   

                        ETA

 

and was probably the main centre for producing –

 

                        BEEF

Also, maybe,

 

                        M

 

is the foundation word that means,

 

                        CATTLE

 

from the sound that they make.    (Think,   MOO)

 

So,

                        M    EAT

 

could mean,

 

                        (PARTS OF THE)    M    (THAT YOU CAN)    EAT

 

ie.,

 

                        MEAT               (BEEF)

IO 6-4 - DELTA

No. 4                                

DELTA

I think this could definitely be applied

to the Nile Delta, in Egypt,

especially if approached from the North -

Where the major commodity produced, was –

 

            GRAIN

Khorasan  - an ancient strain of wheat,

                    could very well have been

                    a major product

                    in Ancient Egypt.

Was the society of Ancient Egypt in existence in  AGES 1  &  2,

before the Biblical Flood?

 

It may have been.

 

But, does this Delta only exist because the Mediterranean Sea has enabled its formation ?

I would say that the Mediterranean Sea has only formed since the Biblical Flood.

And, I would say that this list of commodities was well established,

and at its peak by then.

 

I was interested to know if there was an earlier  Delta  that would be visible on Google Maps,

in the relative area, and this is what I found –

 

Submerged in the Mediterranean Sea,

is what looks to be a triangular area, delineated by what could be a fairly straight cliff edge,

and  2  straight lines.

The straight lines could have been  “rocket roads”.

What I mean by that is, a straight road, made the same way as any road,

but they are straight because they are for the use of rocket fuelled transport vehicles,

such as motorbike type designs, which could not, and didn’t need to, turn corners,

and could cover great distances, quickly.

Similarly, you can see these straight lines going to, what looks to be a built up area

at the South East of the triangle.

 

This is halfway between Tripoli (Libya, Africa) and the island of Crete –

 

Could this have been the original  Delta  ?

IO 6-3 - GAMMA

No. 3     

  GAMMA                                                

 

 

I have no understanding of the major place of production,

where this could be either, as yet.

 

But, following on with the Food Preservation theme,

this could have been a major place of production of –

 

            Gelatine

 

which is obtained by the boiling down of ox  etc., bones. 

The symbol could also be a representation of an ox leg bone -

The connection can be seen in the use of the expressions –

 

                        “Gammy leg”  -  which means,

                                                   a person’s (or otherwise) leg

                                                   that feels like it’s gone to jelly

                                                   and won’t hold up any weight.

 

                        “Gamey”          -  referring to a strong, off smell of something,

                                                    commonly to do with the meat of animals that

                                                    had been caught in the wild (game),

                                                    such as pheasant and rabbit,

                                                    and left to hang a bit too long before cooking,

                                                    such that they are starting to rot down.
