A Note on the Rapanui Lunar Calendar

arXiv:1405.6092

Abstract

This paper is dedicated to the research of secrets of Easter Island (Rapa Nui), a remote plot of land in the Pacific; the article contains not only ethnological data, but also some results on the archaeoastronomy. This author examines both lunar calendar lists presented on the Mamari tablet as well as on a panel at Ahu Raai. Calendar records on different tablets have been investigated, too.

Archaeoastronomy; 5 pages, 4 figures; a misprint on p. 3 has been corrected
