The 'helmet' of the great bird at right in the picture probably illustrates these 3 periods of sun light. On top of the helmet there is a design of 2 + 3 + 2 = 7. The two 'moon eyes' are each supported by 2 and in the center between them is 3 fingers. These form the same type of design as those at the top of the great sun head below the figure blowing a trumpet. And the 2 'members' which are supporting the 'moon eyes' agree with how around the great sun head each of the 17 'moon eyes' also have 2 'supporters'.

The 3 fingers in the center of the bird crown seem to correspond to the 3 fingers in the kai gesture:

From this comparison we can then proceed to the thumb in such glyphs as Eb7-1:


Eb7-1	Eb7-2 (548)	ua	*Rogo*

The figure seems to be Rogo, and where his head should have been there are what looks like waves, and the sign is a version of ua (turned a quarter around). Only 2 waves are present, which - we can understand - presumably refers to the domain of the Moon.

548 can be explained as 3 times 182.5 + ½, with the fraction (½) illustrated as hipu. This pattern is also 3 + 1, because the 4th period is not possible to measure, it is 'hidden behind a dark cloth'.

The 4th period can be anything, it is an unknown. To begin with it is a 'zero' time for the Sun, rather than X, cfr at hahe. But somewhere the 'gazelle' wins the game and Sun becomes 'imprisoned', 'barred'. He cannot be seen any more. The figure blowing the horn appears to be a personification of the X time. We can see that he is 'growing' from the last of the 3 fingers in the crown of the great bird. He is an extension of the 4th 'nail' added to the 3rd.

He has two 'moon' type of eyes, the main one above the smaller, and we know what it means - Moon has 2 'seasons', the waxing period (the small eye) and the waning period (the main eye) where Moon presumbaly is pregnant (cfr the pau sign, like a nose, at right):

His (her?) headgear has two layers, first one with a kava sign and then, at the top, at net pattern. This net seems to be the end result when moving upwards from the 'thumb' (the 4th 'nail'). The 4 wedges resemble a mea ke sign:


kava	mea ke

Perhaps the 4th 'nail' means the additional 100 needed to reach 400 days. The 4 wedgemarks above could represent 4 times 100 nights as counted by the moon. The great bird head is placed like an offering on the 'solstice platform' reached after a climb in 3 steps. Then the path of the Sun leads straight down.
