Counting by Moon (disregarding the estimated 5 empty glyph spaces at the beginning of line Ra1) hura will be number 52 - if we ignore the possibility of an empty glyph space at the beginning of line Ra3:

*Ra3-1 *Ra3-2 *Ra3-3 (52) *Ra3-4 *Ra3-5 *Ra3-6 *Ra3-7
*Ra3-8 *Ra3-9 *Ra3-10 (59) *Ra3-11 *Ra3-12 *Ra3-13

Judging from 53 at the following ihe tau a season evidently is ending with hura, cfr how 2 glyph lines earlier winter solstice evidently is ending with Sun as a Janus-eyed hau tea followed by Moon and ihe tau:

*Ra1-17 *Ra1-18 *Ra1-19 *Ra1-20
*Ra1-21 *Ra1-22 *Ra1-23 *Ra1-24 *Ra1-25
*Ra1-26 *Ra1-27 *Ra1-28 *Ra1-29 *Ra1-30

Or should we use the 'Moon colours', by reducing the ordinal numbers by 5:

*Ra1-12 *Ra1-13 *Ra1-14 *Ra1-15 *Ra1-16
*Ra1-17 *Ra1-18 *Ra1-19 *Ra1-20
*Ra1-21 *Ra1-22 *Ra1-23 *Ra1-24 *Ra1-25

I guess the meaning to be read from hura in *Ra3-3 is different from what we have seen earlier:

*Ra3-3 Hb11-50 Ca5-14 hura

Although the form in general is the same the enormous size of the 'balls' cannot be ignored. In *Ra3-3 they are more like in my prototype for hura.

What time is it? In *Ra3-5 the right one of the double birds (which form a single'person') has a sign of Rogo imprinted on his wing in front. We seem still to be in midwinter. Rogo should be the first glyph of the new year and the double-bird in *Ra3-5 is located in a Sun day.

54 + 5 = 59, and 472 - 59 = 413. Maybe the Moon toga will set the limit for Sun in *Ra3-6. Or else at midnight in day 63 + 5 = 68 (*Ra3-13).

Mars in *Ra3-7 is still 'imprisoned':

*Ra3-1 *Ra3-2 *Ra3-3 (52) *Ra3-4
*Ra3-5 *Ra3-6 *Ra3-7
*Ra3-8 *Ra3-9 *Ra3-10 (59) *Ra3-11 *Ra3-12 *Ra3-13

Rima aueue indicates 'end', for instance of Sun in Gb5-5:

Gb5-5 Gb5-6 Gb5-7 Gb5-8 Gb5-9 Gb5-10
359 360 361 362 363 364

The end of the 'imprisonment' (not literally of course because the egg-form in *Ra3-7 is not drawn with a closed perimeter) is behind the corner.

In H there is a hura at the beginning of side b which exhibits the same enormous 'balls' as hura in *Ra3-3 and therefore it must be a sign:

Hb1-1 Hb1-2 Hb1-3 Hb1-4

We should look closer.
