The two faces of Mabo the Melodious.
In this second aspect, from Heizer & Baumhoff's site #Cl-4, Cane
Springs, Clark County, Nevada, his Gaulish (and usual American) name Mabo
forms his face, and his ogam hair spells the word C-T (Gaelic cetan), the name of his festival on
May Day. He wears the antlers of a
deer god. On his right arm appear
ogam letters spelling cetan. In his left hand he carriesa palm frond
whose ogamic leaflets spell his title B-N-N-H (Galic binn), the Melodious. His
right hand holds the disk of the returning sun, after winter (Fell 1982). [Wahingtonia felifera
oases may have existed in Nevada during this period, or the “palm” frond is perhaps a maguey or yucca]. [Also see Petroglyph list] |
