6. Number 399 as a last number adjoins to 400, the number to be counted on the tresses on the back side of the head of Pachamama. Though it is not certain the chevron marks really are meant to amount to exactly 400. That still remains to be determined. Number 399 for Thursday in Gb6-16 is no coincidence, because the synodic period of Jupiter is 399 days.
In spite of his name Father Light does not belong on the front side of the 'week', instead his function seems to be to terminate the year. But the measure 310 looks forward and we can see the similarity between the 'feathered eyebrows' in Gb6-16 and Gb1-6, a sign that these glyphs are interrelated. If we count from Sunday day number 5 in the week will be Thursday. But if we count from Wednesday day number 5 will be Sunday. Therefore 5 (rima) seems to connect Sun and Jupiter, and with 61 * 6 = 366 the suspected connection becomes plausible. Jupiter comes late in the year and he could be the father of Sun. This is Thursday and its last glyph is a Sun-day manu rere (presumably indicating the departing life spirit of Old Sun):
