The glyph type
pito shares an essential trait with Pb9-33, viz. a round
'ball' in a vertically oriented 'stem':
Metoro had no opportunity to tell what Pb9-33
meant, but chances are good he would have used the
word pito. At Bb6-13 he said
kua motu te pito o te fenua (remarkably with Tahitian fenua instead of
his usual henua).
In Bb6-17 we must notice the double-headed hakaturou sign, arriving closely after the 'center' (Bb6-13). |
