Outlands ten. A review of lunar measures in ancient iconography; Part One addressing the origin of the Alphabet, the Ennead of focal deities, the Goddess, the Underworld, and totemic fauna (each embodying different aspects of the lunation): Serpent, Bull, Horse, Ibex, Cat, Dog and Bird. Part Two presents a sample of previously unsolved ancient puzzles with their lunar solutions: Mayan Long Count calendar cycle; Egyptian Hekat fractions; Israelite Jubilee calendar; Christian puzzle of the 153 large fish; and Hellenic puzzle of the Cattle of the Sun; together with a solution to the inconsistencies in the Biblical account of the Flood.
