[FR] Définition des modèles organisés de signes triples du calendrier de ColignyLe calendrier de Coligny fut découvert il y a plus d’un siècle, au cours duquel les modèles complexes, interconnectés, des divers termes disposés au long de ses mois et années ont été dans une large mesure définis, à l’exception des signes triples qui jusqu’à maintenant n’ont été définis qu’en partie. Les modèles suivis par les signes triples seront ici définis de manière plus précise, ainsi que les interactions avec plusieurs notations, y compris le cas spécial du Jour 21, le cas anormal des triades placées à la fin d’une quinzaine, et le terme EXO. Avec la définition du modèle qui gouverne l’année, le modèle organisé qui sous-tend la distribution des signes triples peut maintenant être finalisé avec certitude, au lieu de compléter le calendrier en restituant les jours inconnus par assemblage.
[EN] It is now over a century since the Coligny calendar was discovered, during which time the intricate, complex and interrelating patterns of the various terms that are layered over its months and years have to a large degree been defined, one exception being the triple marks which have so far only been defined in part. Here the patterns followed by the triple marks are further defined, along with the mark’s interactions with several related notations, including the special treatment of Day 21, the anomalous treatment of triplets that run over the end of a fortnight, and the EXO term. With the definition of the pattern that governs the years, the systematic pattern underlying the distribution of the triple marks can now be finalised with certainty, rather than filling in unknown days through conflation.
