When Raven visited his grandfather he first created a hole in the sky and somewhat later he was pitched overboard from a canoe in midheaven. He turned round and round (to the right) when he was falling, down to the surface of the water where he floated in his cradle. There he peered through a hole in his marten-blanket and discovered the top stone of a housepole.

He untied himself and climbed down the pole to his grandfather sitting by his fire at the very bottom of the sea. (Maui visited his father down below, but that was another case, because Maui was born at 0h, at the Navel of the Horse, the topknot of his mother.)

Hala qaattsi ttakkin-gha, a voice said: 'Come inside, my grandson.' Behind the fire, at the rear of the house, was an old man white as a gull. 'I have something to lend you', said the old man. 'I have something to tell you as well. Dii hau dang iiji: I am you.' Slender bluegreen things with wings were moving between the screens at the back of the house. Waa'asing dang iiji, said the old man again: 'That also is you.'

Like Maui the Raven had different forms depending on the circumstances.

... The Raven stole the skin and form of the newborn child. Then he began to cry for solid food, but he was offered only mother's milk. That night, he passed through the town stealing an eye from each inhabitant. Back in his foster parents' house, he roasted the eyes in the coals and ate them, laughing. Then he returned to his cradle, full and warm ...

In Polynesia there was a goddess of lactation named Nu'a-kea. Possibly she was Schedir (the breast) of Cassiopeia:

... It was 4 August 1968, and it was the feast day of Saint Dominic, patron of Santo Domingo Pueblo, southwest of Santa Fe. At one end of the hot, dusty plaza, a Dominican priest watched nervously as several hundred dancers arranged in two long rows pounded the earth with their moccasined feet as a mighty, collective prayer [ui] for rain, accompanied by the powerful baritone singing of a chorus and the beat of drums. As my family and I viewed this, the largest and in some ways the most impressive Native American public ceremony, a tiny cloud over the Jémez Mountains to the northwest got larger and larger, eventually filling up the sky; at last the storm broke, and the sky was crisscrossed by lightning and the pueblo resounded with peals of rolling thunder ...

The quick vertical journey downwards by Raven could have alluded to the thong holding it all together:

... Proclus informs us that the fox star nibbles continuously at the thong of the yoke which holds together heaven and earth; German folklore adds that when the fox succeeds, the world will come to its end. This fox star is no other than Alcor, the small star g near zeta Ursae Majoris (in India Arundati, the common wife of the Seven Rishis, alpha-eta Ursae ...

Having perceived the Raven could assume different shapes and that his beginning probably was close to the origin of the Milky Way, we can then investigate the glyphs close to the Breast in the G text, for instance:

From Schedir (*8) to Vega (*281) there were 273 (= 3 * 91 = 21 * 13 = 39 * 7) right ascension days.

And in the C text glyph number 101 (at heliacal Sirius) had Vega at the right ascension line of the Full Moon 3 days earlier:

It all suggests manu punu'a corresponded to the last day before the beginning of the next cycle. The rumble of the wings of the Bird of Thunder came before his Alighting at the top. A tent pole (ξ) needed a hole at the top and the Raven constellation (Corvus) delineated the form of a tent.

	Toga. 1. Winter season. Two seasons used to be distinguished in ancient times: hora, summer, and toga, winter. 2. To lean against somehing; to hold something fast; support, post supporting the roof. 3. To throw something with a sudden movement. 4. To feed oneself, to eat enough; e-toga koe ana oho ki te aga, eat well first when you go to work. Vanaga. 1. Winter. P Pau., Mgv.: toga, south. Mq.: tuatoka, east wind. Ta.: toa, south. 2. Column, prop; togatoga, prop, stay. Togariki, northeast wind. Churchill. Wooden platform for a dead chief: ka tuu i te toga (Bb8-42), when the wooden platform has been erected. Barthel 2. The expressions Tonga, Kona, Toa (Sam., Haw., Tah.), to indicate the quarter of an island or of the wind, between the south and west, and Tokelau, Toerau, Koolau (Sam., Haw., Tah.), to indicate the opposite directions from north to east - expressions universal throughout Polynesia, and but little modified by subsequent local circumstances - point strongly to a former habitat in lands where the regular monsoons prevailed. Etymologically 'Tonga', 'Kona', contracted from 'To-anga' or 'Ko-ana', signifies 'the setting', seil. of the sun. 'Toke-lau', of which the other forms are merely dialectical variations, signifies 'the cold, chilly sea'. Fornander.
