In our previous essay (Earth/matriX N.34), we illustrated the manner in which the 360c day-count calendar may have been derived from a grid based on a 36 x 36 square. The numbers that appear on the 36c square are relevant to the numbers found in the historical record of the reckoning system of ancient Mesoamerica. The numbers are listed on the 36c square in multiples of the 36c integer, and then added to one another in a progression. The 36c integer is multiplied 1-36 times. The 36c square produces the following set of numbers:

From this grid, one may obtain the idea of creating other grid arrangements. Different designs and patterns obtain from the number of squares on the grid. It may become obvious to the reader that this may have constituted a particular procedure for creating distinct designs and patterns in various ancient cultures.
