Also in the G text there is a niu at Alhena 1, although it oddly has no opening in the firmly drawn outline of the figure:

The closed perimeter could be a sign of vaha mea (red - or great - opening):

vaha mea Ga2-29 niu

When I once classified glyphs according to picture I found Ga3-4 to have signs both of vaha mea and mea ke ('something different'):

vaha mea Ga3-4 mea ke

It is possible to imagine the 'axle tree' of the Mill pushing the vertex of the sky roof up in the mea ke design.

As to the curious figure under the triplet roof vertexes in Ka3-20 I failed in my efforts to find a reasonable explanation. It became a singular oddity:
