It can be proven that the texts of G and K are calendars, and that in each of these calendars other shorter calendars are inserted in a complicated pattern which must be read with 'double focus' - the short calendar is a not very long sequence of glyphs which catches the immediate attention of the reader, but this sequence (or at least part of it) at the same time functions as a piece in the greater puzzle of the whole text. We can use Ka4-11 as an example. It is both a part in a short calendar and an important piece of the whole text:

Ka4-1 Ka4-2 Ka4-3 Ka4-4 Ka4-5 Ka4-6 Ka4-7
Ka4-8 Ka4-9 Ka4-10 Ka4-11 Ka4-12

The 12 glyphs probably are intended to be a 'map' over the months of the year. In Ka4-1 a moon type of bird (determined by the form of the beak) is holding a clenched fist high towards the right (future), and the closed fist represents the not yet counted (let loose) 'fingers' (limbs, months).

In Ka4-7 henua has 3 upwards slanting marks across, referring to the waxing spring sun. In Ka4-10 there are 2 horizontal marks across, referring to the 2nd part of the year. In Ka4-12 the kiore figure (representing sun) is not real (the contour line is not closed), i.e. the old sun is no more. The year has ended.
