Following earlier suggestions (cfr at vaha kai) it is possible to arrange the 42 first glyphs of Y into a pattern with 18 + 18 + 6 glyphs:

18 15 3
Ya3-5 Ya3-6 Ya3-7 Yb3-1 Yb3-2 Yb3-3
36 6
42

If we then rearrange the pattern so 6 will come at the beginning, we will have Ya1-3 as number 9:

Yb3-1 Yb3-2 Yb3-3 Yb3-4 Yb3-5 Yb3-6
Ya1-1 Ya1-2 Ya1-3 (9) Ya1-4 Ya1-5 Ya1-6

It is then possible to assemble another pattern:

20 16
Yb3-1 (1) Yb3-2 Yb3-3 Yb3-4 Ya3-5 Ya3-6
24 = 3 * 8 18 = 3 * 6
42 = 3 * 14

From winter solstice (possibly at Yb3-1) there are 240 days to the end of high summer (possibly at Ya3-5) which will give us 10 days per glyph.

And hahe in Ya1-3 will then be located at the end of the first quarter (of 360 days). Then follows a pure glyph, maybe in order to show how 'life' has disappeared - presumably of the old year. At 100 days there is a Rei (Ya1-5), maybe to indicate the beginning of the 2nd quarter (of 400 days). The new year seems to be born (Yb3-2--3) before the old year is going away (Ya1-3--4).
