Only one more typical maro glyph remains to be studied in C:
It is glyph number 8 in the moon calendar. However, the glyph type and numbers suggest it relates to the sun and not to the moon. From experience gained we dare say that Ca6-24 is the last glyph before a new part of the calendar will begin. Of course the 2nd period of the moon calendar is such a part. Or maybe period 1 is special and the new part consists of periods 2-8. Another alternative is to regard the moon calendar as embedded in a longer calendar, in which case maro in Ca6-24 will be the last glyph of some sequence of glyphs beginning much earlier than Ca6-17. Finally, we should not overlook the possibility that the moon calendar is meant to be (or to reflect) a sun calendar:
36 and 192 are numbers connected with the sun. And we recognize the sign of Rogo in the first glyph of all 8 periods, e.g. in Ca6-17 and Ca7-25. Beyond the first 8 glyph lines follow what could be the beginning of the 'back' side of the text, with for instance koti in Ca9-9 as glyph number 237 (= 8 * 29.5 + 1):
Counted from Cb12-12 the number will be 300 and the structure resembles that in G:
Furthermore, the end of the moon calendar (Ca8-29) seems to be indirectly referring to the 10th kuhane station, Hua Reva. |
