44:21

44:12 · This ideogram is from the famous stele of Naram-Sin from around 2300 B.C. An Akkadian king can be seen worshipping this structure, an eightpointed Venus star with its radiation symbolized by five wavy lines between each of the star's eight points. Its meaning is Venus in both of its appearances, the Morning star and the Evening star, the goddess Inanna or Ischtar.
    See 29:13 in Group 29 for a derivation of the mathematics of the numbers five and eight, and the Venus star signs.
