  We investigate the orientational order of transverse polarization vectors of
long columns of nucleosomal core particles and their coupling to positional
order in high density mesophases discovered recently. Inhomogeneous polar
ordering of these columns precipitates crystalization of the 2D sections with
different orientations of the transverse polarization vector on each column in
the unit cell. We propose possible scenarios for going from the 2D hexagonal
phase into distorted lamellar and related phases observed experimentally.
