Following the lead given by the two manu kake glyphs, and by vaha kai and pito, we should realize that the last of the 6 glyph lines resembles for instance the last part of the back side on the G tablet - it contains the beginning of the new year. The spring sun light has not yet returned, but a new year it is anyhow. I will consequently move line Yb3 (provisionally) from the end of the calendar to its beginning in order to see the calendar better. Furthermore, I can use the 'kiore+henua' glyphs (Ya1-6 and Ya2-6) in order to reorganize the structure by dividing line Ya2 into 6 + 2 glyphs. This results in 6 + 6 + 6 = 18 glyphs at the beginning of my structure, which presumably means there are 10 glyphs per day:
The kiore in Yb3-6 has no henua because spring light has not yet returned. The henua sign probably refers to a wooden pole or staff connected with how the 'sky roof' is being pushed up gradually higher in spring (cfr the 'henua calendars' in G and K). There is a kiore also in Yb3-5, and he has his arm held in front so that it looks like a henua pole. He is ready to begin pushing the sky up, I guess. In this connection I must add a piece of evidence supporting Metoro in his claim that this type of sign should be named kiore. |
