The complicated
structure of Tahua needs vae kore glyphs, and
there they seem to function in a way similar to viri glyphs.
Such structurally
important glyph types as viri and vae kore are
of potential use for connecting texts on different tablets. One
such example will be given here, based on 12 * 28 = 336:
 |
 |
 |
|
Aa5-1 |
Aa5-2 |
Aa5-3 |
|
334 |
335 |
336 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Gb4-13 |
Gb4-14 |
Gb4-15 |
The ordinal
numbers are counted from a1-1 in both texts. The parallel is
obvious. But the expressions are quite different. Manu rere
in Gb4-15 comes after twin glyphs, not before. Probably it is
due to the different characteristics inherent in the little bird contra
those of the
great bird. As birth contra death. Gb4-15 is only some 10 glyphs
beyond Akahanga (the burial place):

10. Akahanga |

Gb4-4 (324) |
Gb4-5 (325) |
