DANUm "water", cognate with [Skt.] DHANUs "a bow, rainbow"

p. 42 Lalukn Sirukn was married to +Tempose Lili, and they dwelt at Usuk Jautn Natukn, "at the Edge of the Dark Clouds. The only source of water at this time was" Lalukn Sirukn, "as water trickled from ... the corners of his mouth."

As component of the fetter binding Fenrir, the "spittle of a bird" may have been provided by Heim-dall, who needed no more sleep than a bird (according to the Edda). Heimdall was guardian of the rainbow.

p. 44 T.L.S.'s pengawa (captain) slew by shooting ipoh from his fingers {cf. Daoist shooting lightning from fingers: allusion to duck-billed platypus' having poisonous talon?}, sinak from his eyen; but (p. 46) that pengawa was himself killed by looking at his own reflection in the mirror Busatn-Tiwak {cf. Daoist mirrors which reflect back curses on would-be cursers}.

p. 46 in village Usuk Jautn Nantukn, T.L.S.'s longhouse during the day "stood close to the earth, but at night it rose to unseen heights upon its iron pillars." {cf. iron statue crushed by blind Dhr.ta-ras.t.ra, according to the Maha-bharata -- blindness may be alternative to self-destruction by seeing one's self}

This longhouse might repraesent the F2 layer of the ionosphaere: the mirror might repraesent its reflecting radio-waves. The iron pillars might refer to the earth's magnetic field. The "rainbow" might be the aurora [borealis].

the struggle over its fruit:-

p. 47A child, Sira>, son of Lalukn Reniun & +Ebok Bayakn Bulatn, was weeping for, as toy, the fruit of P. Lebat Bulat, which fruit had been carried off by the shrew Marau Belakn to the tree Kumpat Remunutn Jautn.

A rabbit carried off the fruit used as playing-ball, according to the Popol Vuh.

p. 49 Pelek (father of Pele), having shot the shrew, was struck by Ujun Karakn, who smote the would-be fruit-retriever Ujun Tini>; so that Lalukn Reniun recovered the fruit.

The fruit used as playing-ball was recovered.

p. 49 These lightning-flashes occurred while Sira> Nain was sleeping. {cf. the lightning-storm seen in dream by [S^uar of Ecuador] seeker of arutam: this is "type 2 false awakening"}

pp. 50-51 Sira> Nain climbed tree, which "tree kept growing ... through the layer of clouds known as Mulu-mate and at length had grown close to" the door of the heavens: S.N. thereupon became (p. 51) named Niam Rumokn, and afterwards Boruk Beruokn Olo, the macaque monkey. {cf. brethren Hun C^uen & Hun Batz, who climbed a tree which miraculously grew, changing them into monkeys, according to the Popol Vuh}

The macaque Beruokn Olo Merapat Jawakn Lanit hath "one hand grasping the crown of the tree and the other planted firmly in the Door of the Heavens." (p. 55)

[Sumerian] Enkidu suffered having the door to the realm of HUwawa slammed shut on his hand.

As Beruokn Olo was "grasping the falling crown of the tree, a branch was broken off and flung high into the heavens where it was tranbsformed into a sea, the place of the crocodile" Orai Ani>. (p. 61)

Is this branch the stick wedged between the jaws of the crocodile, rendering it helpless, in the Iban maxim? In the Bhagavata Puran.a, HUHU is seized by a crocodile -- is this Orai Ani>?

Polu-dektes sought to force marriage (with himself) upon +Danae (GM 73.d); P. opposed this.

B. was "a killer ... of women"

P. killed the demi-goddess Medousa:

p. 70 when the guardian of the door of heaven kicked them down thence, Delonokn Utak & Delonokn Payakn fell, died, and became Selebintik Buntukn Bentas & Lenau Bulau Bukn Natakn.

p. 70 Benciakn, brother of Lan~akn, then returned to Batu> Galakn Nayu>. Would this place-name be associated with Naga> Galakn Tana>, place of Ilokn (= Iloko of Luzon?)?

Naga> Galakn Tana> is paired (Temputn, p. 58) with (volcano) Mentiyalikn, place of Bontik (= Bontok Igorot of Luzon?) [volcanoes are abodes of souls of the dead, in Solomon is.]

cf. (volcano, GM 75.6) Khimaira of (GM 75.b) king Io-bates; king Io-bates being allied (GM 73.a) with Proitos [= Skt. preta "unborn soul"] the human father of Perseus.

As a composite animal Khimaira (GM 75.b), or as a composite-animal-style pirates' ship Kheimarrhos (GM 75.d), the connection with preta ("soul between lives, soul to-become-relinked-to-body") would seem to confirm a Bauddha hypothesis of the composite nature of the soul.

pp. 63-64 the Nayu> Olikn brethren were slain, and their sons Uda> & Bela> were carried off, by the Delonokn brethren.

Theio-[menes] was slain, and his (Th.-m.'s) son Hulas was carried off, by Hera-klees (GM 143.a). His (Th.-M.'s) successor Plulas was likewise slain Hera-klees (GM 143.b).

p. 63 the Delonokn brethren despoiled the Nayu> Olikn brethren's corpses [of their heads].

Hera-klees and Io-laos then despoiled Kuknos's corpse (GM 143.g).

p. 66 Benciakn was sympathizer, on account of their fathers' deaths, with Uda> & Bela>.

Anauros (GM 143.g) was place of chosen by Kehuks as burial-place of Kuknos.

p. 69 Benciakn was pursued for despoiling the the Delonokn brethren's corpses [of their heads].

+Athene had warned Hera-klees not to despoil the corpse of Kuknos (GM 143.g).

The Benua>, though now in the valley of the Mahakam, hail earlier from the valley of the river TIWai / Tiwe / Tewe (Temputn, p. 1), a tributary to the river Barito. TIW is the Old English (cf. Norse Ty`-r) cognate to [Skt.] DIVas-pati Indra, husband to +DIVA, goddess of riches whose name is aequivalent to the "Minoan Linear B script" goddess +DIWA, ancestress (GM 143.c) to the tribe ruled over by Theio-menes & Phulas. They occupied (GM 143.b) Hermione, a town named for the wife (GM 114.f) of Orestes -- +Hermione is cognate with [Skt.] +Sarama the bitch, wife (according to the Veda) of the dog Sisira, whose name is cognate Sisra> who was murdered treacherously by a woman after he was lured into drinking (S^PTYM 4:19-21), much as Hulas was lured (GM 150.b) underwater by the granddaughter of +Diwa.
