The last item has been numbered 56 instead of 55, maybe because the 50th item has 2 lines. At Hanga Te Pau there should be a line of division.

Neither Moon (Mahina) nor Sun (day) is mentioned on this page. Perhaps this fact is connected with Hanga Te Pau (which suggests 'sweet water' has run out). The 50th item is a suitable place because 5 ('fire in the sky') * 10 = 50.

Rano Kau (item 51) comes beyond Hanga Te Pau in a manner not much different from how Rano Raraku (29) comes beyond the last night of luminous Moon:

29 ko te rano a raraku. 51 rano kau te taki toka hakapiri te vaenga te mu(-) ko.muko.

From Hanga Ohiro (20) to Hanga Te Pau (50) there are 30 items, which could refer to a month measured as 360 / 12.
