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] |
