Let us try to count the ordinal numbers for the hua poporo glyphs among the 364 glyphs at the end of side b:

Ordinal numbers counted from Hb1-1:
*Hb8-49 (408) Hb9-54 (467) Hb10-34 (512) Hb11-24 (569) Hb12-32 (630)
408 - 284 = 124 467 - 284 = 183 512 - 284 = 228 569 - 284 = 285 630 - 284 = 346
0 467 - 408 = 59 512 - 408 = 104 569 - 408 = 161 630 - 408 = 222

Hua poporo in *Hb8-49 is glyph number 408 counted from Hb1-1. In G number 408 (counted from Gb8-30) is the last glyph before Rogo in Gb6-26.

If 408 is significant, it complicates matters because the 'end glyph' of 200 days, mea ke in Hb6-29, is glyph number 284 counted from Hb1-1.

59 glyphs later comes next hua poporo (Hb9-54), is that only a coincidence or was it designed to be so?

Hua poporo in Hb11-24 has a different kind of 'body' than the rest of them, a sign which I read as a 'measuring' line. The glyph is located twice as far away from Hb1-1 as mea ke in Hb6-29:

282 282 79
Hb1-1 (1) Hb6-29 (284) Hb6-30 Hb11-23 Hb11-24 (569)
284 284 80
364

The H text is difficult. Let us return.
