The parallel between Pb11-42 (much like the 'swallowing mouth' in Gb3-9) and Hb10-32 gives us a clue that a concave (towards right) 'canoe' tapa mea could mean a gaping mouth:
To the right then follow 'canoes' (tao) without any 'feather' marks - presumably meaning that darkness (the 'dark cloth') has fallen. Ordinal number 1140 (counted from Pa1-1) is equal to 19 * 60, and Pb11-40 (as in 1140) is a variant of rau hei, a 'hanging fish'. The parallel glyph Hb10-30 (ika hiku) could allude to day number 10 * 30 = 300 for the sun. |
