Lucy Lloyd |xam notebooks

Dia!kwain (David Hoesar) (V)

<i>The great star !gãunu, which singing, named the stars. By the position of certain stars, named by !gãunu, the porcupine knows the time for returning home. In the Katkop dialect, by Díä!kwãin (L V.-20. 5576-5580). </i>The star !gaunu named small stars 'aquilae' - they influence the porcupine at dawn and are thus called the Dawn's stars.
