The tablet which the creator of the Mamari text had in front of him was in excellent shape. Yet he incised some glyph sequences without showing the whole glyphs, for instance at the beginning of side a:

Ea1-1	Ea1-2	Ea1-3	Ea1-4	Ea1-5	Ea1-6	Ea1-7

Another instance comes early in line Ea5, but here the non-visible legs of tagata evidently are connected with glyphs which are 'raised high' and the type of sign is presumably of a different kind:

Ea4-35	Ea4-36	Ea5-1	Ea5-2	Ea5-3
Ea5-4	Ea5-5	Ea5-6	Ea5-7	Ea5-8
Ea5-9	Ea5-10	Ea5-11	Ea5-12	Ea5-13

But at the beginning of line Ea8 we can once again see the same type of phenomenon as at the beginning of line Ea1:

Ea8-1	Ea8-2	Ea8-3	Ea8-4 (260)

*Ea8-5	*Ea8-6	*Ea8-7	*Ea8-8

An empty glyph space after Ea8-4 is probably a further sign, because of ordinal number 260 (counted from Ea1-1).

And scattered in line Ea9 there are many glyphs only partially drawn:

Ea9-1	Ea9-2	Ea9-3	Ea9-4	Ea9-5	Ea9-6
Ea9-7	Ea9-8	Ea9-9	Ea9-10	Ea9-11	Ea9-12
Ea9-13	Ea9-14	Ea9-15	Ea9-16	Ea9-17	Ea9-18
Ea9-19	Ea9-20	Ea9-21	Ea9-22	Ea9-23	Ea9-24

Ea9-25	Ea9-26	Ea9-27	Ea9-28	Ea9-29	Ea9-30
Ea9-31	Ea9-32	Ea9-33	Ea9-34	Ea9-35	Ea9-36

Finally there are a few of only partly visible glyphs towards the end of line Eb1:

Eb1-30	Eb1-31	Eb1-32	Eb1-33	Eb1-34	Eb1-35
