The structure of G can be described by using multiples of 29.5 and in accordance with the kuhane stations (as described in Manuscript E). Te Piringa Aniva is there given number 6:

However, the text of G has located Te Piringa Aniva as the first station on side a - quite naturally if this station indicates how the old sun is finished and a new one is being created by the efforts of all the people on the island:

Ga1-22	Ga1-23	Ga1-24	Ga1-25
Ga1-26	Ga1-27	Ga1-28	Ga1-29	Ga1-30

If ordinal numbers are counted from Ga1-1, a new fire could coincide with Rei in Ga1-30. Another possibility is to count from Ga1-22, in which case 472 will be at Ga1-22 and Te Piringa Aniva will come 7 glyphs beyond (and with Ga1-30 at 480):

Ga1-18	Ga1-19	Ga1-20	Ga1-21	Ga1-22
468	469	470	471	472

22 presumably indicates the cycle is closed and 480 = 20 * 24 perhaps has a similar meaning. A calendar cycle can be of immense length, the Maya have taught us, and 480 nights for a cycle is no impossibility.

Evidence 'proves' Ga1-22 to be the starting point of the sun journey.
