English to Greek: Dogon mythology

Source text - English
The Dolphin Within Man;

A very interesting mythological story about whales and dolphins concerns a tribe in west Africa called the Dogon of Mali. The Dogon, whose culture is alive and well today, at one time lived on the southern coast of the Mediterranean. They have many religious and creation beliefs which very much involve the whales and dolphins. They have perpetuated these beliefs in their religious ceremonies and in the form of sand drawings.

In their basket weavings they had 50.8 divisions, the reason for which is that they had quite specific knowledge of the Sirius star system which is a binary star system. They understood how Sirius B, the white dwarf, moved around the main bright star Sirius A. They used sand drawings to illustrate the orbital paths of the stars. The white dwarf Sirius B takes 50.8 years to complete an orbit of Sirius A. The Dogon knew this.
Translation - Greek
Το δελφίνι μέσα στο άνθρωπο.


Μια πολύ ενδιαφέρουσα μυθολογική ιστορία για τις φάλαινες και τα δελφίνια αφορά μια φυλή στη Δυτική Αφρική αποκαλούμενη Dogon του Μαλί. Οι Dogon, των οποίων ο πολιτισμός είναι ζωντανός σήμερα, κάποτε έζησε στη νότια ακτή της Μεσογείου. Έχουν πολλές θρησκευτικές και πεποιθήσεις δημιουργιών που περιλαμβάνουν πάρα πολύ τις φάλαινες και τα δελφίνια. Έχουν διαιωνίσει αυτές τις πεποιθήσεις στις θρησκευτικές τελετές τους και υπό μορφή σχεδίων άμμου.

Στις υφάνσεις καλαθιών τους είχαν 50.8 τμήματα, ο λόγος για τον οποίο είναι ότι είχαν την συγκεκριμένη γνώση του συστήματος αστεριών Sirius που είναι ένα σύστημα δυαδικών αστεριών.

Κατάλαβαν πώς Sirius Β, ο λευκός νάνος, κινήθηκε γύρω από το κύριο φωτεινό αστέρι Sirius Α. Χρησιμοποίησαν τα σχέδια άμμου για να επεξηγήσουν τις τροχιακές πορείες των αστεριών. Ο άσπρος νάνος Sirius Β κάνει 50.8 έτη για να ολοκληρώσει μια τροχιά Sirius Α. Οι Dogon το ήξεραν αυτό.
