1 + 121 + 46 + 3 + 59 = 2 * 61 + 49 + 59 = 122 + 108 = 230 (counting also day zero).

Among these 108 days from the current September equinox (viri in Ga5-11) to the end of side b there could, however, have been a seven day wake (week) not to be counted in the ordinary way:

... Day number 172 for Ga7-3 (where 73 = 365 / 5) probably alluded to midsummer (with June 21 as day 172 in the Gregorian calendar). At midsummer a new year was born ... If Ga7-3 alludes to midsummer (June 21 and 11 days after June 10), then Ga7-6 should allude to St John's Day. The month when Father Light (Jupiter) was sacrificed could have had a 7-day funeral feast and Al Zubānā-14 covers 7 nights ...

Or there could rather have been 14 dark nights not to be counted with, stretching from Ga6-17 (314 / 7 = 157) at Toliman (α Centauri) up to and including viri in Ga7-1 (170). 230 (days on side a) - 14 = 216 = 2 * 108.

In which case the G text here could suggest how the arrival of Hotu Matua once upon a time occurred when Sirrah (α Andromedae) culminated at midnight, at a day which today had shifted 27 days ahead from 'Tagaroa Uri 15 (288) to Ko Ruti 11 (315). In other words, Nga Kope Ririva A Taanga possibly had a dual meaning, but both referring to 208 days counted from the March equinox:

171 (Ga7-2) - 144 (Ga6-4) = 27 = *235 - *208.

Ariki (the king) in Ga6-3 has 2 feathers at left and 3 in front. So does ariki in Ga7-6. Both have their legs 'in the water'. 7 * 6 = 42 and 6 * 3 = 18 and 42 - 18 = 24.
