DATA:
Location: Senegal and Guinea Africa
Geolocation: 12°31’N/17°34’W
Math: Calculations of the angular speed entering Guinea Current
Ocean Currents/Gyre: Guinea Current
Ethnobotany: Lysimacha meaning in folklore “To end strife.” Antiaris Toixicara used as poison arrows in Guinea in defense of intruders.
Catalan Atlas: The secant arc and wind measurements are drawn into the sails of the ship.
English Translation:
Sacred Cubits, hurried variation spread upland way. Sift well the instructions gushes quickly. Measure the (a)length/descending uvula twice the sum. Solidify time station confirmed from behind. Cover the sun-area rotation measurement, it was situation together descending from the secant arc measurement.
The length of time the wind covers upright the velocity away from Earth measurement station secant arc, they were the measured slowly. The angular speed(radius) approach and change in direction carryout the area, risky edge measurement builds a dam. The new way stations the secant arc.

NOTES: Observe the Catalan Atlas and the four guys on a boat. Three of the men have loci lines going through the mouth area. Read the translation of the first paragraph above. The uvula refers to the larger hanging flower between Canal do Gaba and Casamance. To calculate the secant arc it is drawn in the sail of the boat in the Catalan Atlas.
