the same space. As our purpose is to find the main date <strong>of</strong> an<br />

Egyptian horoscope, we have placed in our diagram a question<br />

mark above the pole indicating the main date. The question<br />

mark is simply a reminder that in order to identify the moment,<br />

when the astronomical situation shown in the zodiac<br />

took place, we need to carry out appropriate computations. In<br />

this case, a complete solution is a date belonging to the year<br />

where all the specified in the zodiac conditions are satisfied.<br />

4.4 Dating <strong>of</strong> Egyptian Zodiacs with<br />

Equal Treatment <strong>of</strong> all Admissible<br />

Decodings<br />

With discovery <strong>of</strong> partial horoscopes the dating <strong>of</strong> Egyptian<br />

<strong>zodiacs</strong> took a new dimension. The amount <strong>of</strong> the astronomical<br />

information now available is sufficient not only for finding<br />

a unique date for a zodiac, but in fact, also to verify the correctness<br />

<strong>of</strong> the used decoding. In the earlier attempts, based<br />

on the preliminary analysis, a decoding was chosen and only<br />

then used to carried out the calculation <strong>of</strong> the dates. Now,<br />

we do not select the “best” decodings but instead, we calculate<br />

the dates for all admissible decodings, and next compared<br />

them with the additional information. In this way, the<br />

correctness <strong>of</strong> a decoding is determined as a result <strong>of</strong> calculations.<br />

This method became possible due to the fact that there<br />

is now enough astronomical information available to exclude,<br />

for most <strong>of</strong> the considered <strong>zodiacs</strong>, random dates resulting<br />

from incorrect decodings. It is statistically impossible to have<br />

a date in the historical time interval, which corresponds to<br />

incorrect decoding and in the same time satisfies all the astronomical<br />

conditions retrieved from the zodiac. Let us point<br />

out that for a successful application <strong>of</strong> this method to obtain<br />

a reliable dating <strong>of</strong> anEgyptian zodiac, it is not necessary to<br />

have all the four partial horoscopes present on the zodiac.<br />

However, if there are two or even one partial horoscope available,<br />

with astronomically significant information, it is already<br />

sufficient to determine which decoding is correct and find the<br />

unique main date. Of course, in order do assure that the obtained<br />

result is correct, in each particular case, we must use<br />

all the accessible astronomical information.<br />

To be more specific, we should clarify that not every decoding<br />

is admissible. It is possible to create imaginary decodings,<br />

just by arbitrarily assigning astronomical meanings<br />

to the symbols <strong>of</strong> a zodiac. But, the principle <strong>of</strong> our method<br />

would require that the same rule should be applied to the<br />

all other studied <strong>zodiacs</strong> with no exception. That means that<br />

the same type <strong>of</strong> a symbol in a similar context, but on different<br />

<strong>zodiacs</strong>, should always have the same meaning. In this<br />

way, it is possible to eliminate many unrealistic decodings.<br />

By applying the rule that the same symbol on different <strong>zodiacs</strong><br />

should be treated exactly in the same manner, we are<br />

able to significantly reduce the total number <strong>of</strong> possible variants<br />

<strong>of</strong> admissible decodings for the analyzed <strong>zodiacs</strong>. Still, in<br />

the case <strong>of</strong> many <strong>zodiacs</strong> there are dozens <strong>of</strong> variants, which<br />

should be analyzed and calculated.
