Our excursion to Keiti now leads us back to where it all began - to Aruku Kurenga where sun is 'falling' (topa according to Metoro):

Bb8-37 Bb8-38 Bb8-39
Bb8-40 Bb8-41 Bb8-42

The toga glyph (Bb8-42) is preceded (in the interval between -36 and -42) first by two sun glyphs flanking a central ua. These two suns are drawn in a way which is nearly identical with the sun at left in Ea7-39:

Ea7-36 Ea7-37 Ea7-38 Ea7-39 (256)

The flame at center bottom is in both places formed like an inverted apex. But the circular sun disc in Ea7-39 should be contrasted with the sagging oval form in Bb8-37 and Bb8-39.

8 * 38 (in Bb8-38) = 16 * 19 = 304. If we regard -39 as 19 more than 20, we may have an allusion to Sun. 256 = 4 * 64 at Ea7-39 could also allude to Sun (as well as Bb8-39, of course).

If Sun is 'falling' (topa) in Aruku Kurenga, then he seems to have fallen also according to Keiti (242 days beoynd Ea7-39, viz. at Eb5-23):

22
Eb5-21 (1) Eb5-22 (2) Eb5-23 (3) Eb5-24 (4)

To be true to the Keiti text we must, though, also show the glyphs which follow beyond Ea7-39.
