THE YES-AND-NO STONES ABOUT TAGES
The PDF of my original notes is below, but I’ll sum it up here. Tages was a man who came from neither the poorest nor the richest, most powerful echelon of Etruscan society, but he was literate. He could read and write in the Etruscan language, and more than that, he had what today we would call mediumistic talents. His thunder-divining calendar was channeled material. Who he channeled it from, I did not delve into. Tages during his life kept this brontoscopic calendar to himself, and shared it with only a few close, trusted associates. After his death, his papers, including his channeled brontoscopic calendar were gathered-up along with his other personal effects. Obviously, his channeled thunder-divining calendar material ended up in the hands of the Etruscan priesthood, and it must’ve worked, because it was in the religious text the Romans claimed as war-booty when they conquered Etruria centuries later.
One other thing about this brontoscopic calendar: the first translator, Figulus, specified that this calendar was applicable basically only to Italy, but when I asked the Yes-and-No stones if it would apply equally-well to the northern hemisphere of the Earth as well, the answer was yes. Further questioning revealed that, if the order of months was switched-around, this calendar would apply equally-well to the southern hemisphere.
