3. Our discussion have led to a structure with 6 + 4 + 6 = 16 glyphs, where 2 empty eye-sockets of tagata gagana (Ga1-11) can be contrasted with the single 'eyes' at left in Ga1-18 and at left in Ga1-23:

Ga1-11	Ga1-12	Ga1-13	Ga1-14	Ga1-15	Ga1-16
Hanga Takaure (?)		Poike (?)		Pua Katiki (?)

Ga1-17	Ga1-18	Ga1-19	Ga1-20
Maunga Teatea (?)		Mahatua (?)

Ga1-21	Ga1-22	Ga1-23	Ga1-24	Ga1-25	Ga1-26
Taharoa (?)		Hanga Hoonu (?)		Rangi Meamea (?)

Hanga Takaure could represent the end station of 'the old calabash', the 2nd season of Sun which comes beyond midsummer, while Hanga Hoonu could represent the end station of the whole year:

	6		4
Ga1-11 (12)		Ga1-18		Ga1-23 (24)
	12

In this pattern we can locate Ga1-17 and Ga1-21 to the 2nd 12-glyph sequence:

	3				2		1
Ga1-12 (13)		Ga1-16	Ga1-17	Ga1-18		Ga1-21		Ga1-23 (24)
5			4			3

And then, apparently, follows the birth of a new era:

Ga1-24 (25)	Ga1-25	Ga1-26
