The tip of Hydra's tail was where 'October was ending, at 58 Hydrae. The tip of its nose, δ Hydrae, was in RA day 130. I.e. Hydra's length is 224 - 130 = 94 days, or ca 3 months.

Counting from the 1st clearly visible kiore+henua (Ka4-3) to the last such glyph (Kb4-14) there are 303 - 209 = 94 days. There are 26 glyphs of this type, which suggests a possible connection to the 26 stars of Hydra:

If we should add also those kiore+henua glyphs where the henua part cannot be seen, the number will rise to 29.
The henua calendar seems to coincide with the long path down through the body of Hydra.
... Said Maui, 'What kind of combat do you wish?' Said Tuna, 'One of us enters into the body of the other, goes completely in. When it is over I will kill you, and take the woman back to my land.' So Maui agreed, and Tuna said, 'I will try it first.' He began his chanting:
Hiki tautau orea, / Tautau orea, / He tangata nui i whano mai / I tena motu ra ... It is I, Tuna, / That now enters your body, O Maui!
With this word Tuna went completely into Maui's body, he went through the place for entering and disappeared. After a while he came out again. Said Maui, 'Now it is my turn,' and he spoke a chant like that which Tuna said: Ko vau, ko Maui, e tomo ki roto / I ia a u, e Te Tuna! With this word Maui entered into Tuna's body, and all of Tuna's sinews came apart, he died.
Maui came out again; he cut off Tuna's head to take it to his ancestor. But Huahega his mother took it from him and she said: 'You must bury this head of Tuna beside the post in the corner of our house.' Maui did so, and that head grew up, it sprouted, it became a coconut tree. On the nut which is its fruit we see the face of Tuna, eyes and mouth. All coconuts have this ... 
"Halloween or Hallowe'en ... a contraction of 'All Hallows' Evening' ...also known as All Hallows' Eve, is a yearly celebration observed in a number of countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It initiates the triduum of Hallowmas, the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed believers." (Wikipedia)
