Ain al Rami ('The Eye of the Archer', ν Sagittarii) draws my attention because there is another Ain in Taurus.

From Januari 1 (with Ain al Rami) to May 26 (with Ain in Taurus) there are 146 - 1 = 145 = 5 * 29 days. At December 30 (364) we counted 10 * 29 (from the numbers in Ca10-29).

RA day 290 is January 5:

Gregorian 372 is 8 days beyond December 30 and the glyph number 11-8 suggests the 8th day in the month after Decem-ber. It is not January 8 because in the Gregorian calendar also day 365 is counted.

372 = 12 * 31 = 12 * 29½ + 12 * 1½ = 354 + 18 = 236 (Shaula 5) + 136 = 8 * 29½ + 8 * 17 = 8 * 46½ = 4 * 93 = 80 + 292 = 8 * 10 + 8 * 36½ = 4 * 20 + 4 * 73 = 2 * 40 + 2 * 146 = 2 * 186.

Alrami is α Sagittarii, close to the overturned Corona Australis:

There is precisely a week from Ain al Rami to Alrami. 293.2 - 286.2 = 7.0.

Here Metoro said te mauga hiku hia.

Hiku

Tail; caudal fin. Hikukio'e, 'rat's tail': a plant (Cyperus vegetus). Vanaga.

... In the deep night before the image [of Lono] is first seen, there is a Makahiki ceremony called 'splashing-water' (hi'uwai). Kepelino tells of sacred chiefs being carried to the water where the people in their finery are bathing; in the excitement created by the beauty of their attire, 'one person was attracted to another, and the result', says this convert to Catholicism, 'was by no means good' ... (Islands of History)

Perhaps Nunki (another name for Eridu) at the end of the 'River', where the 'Sea' was beginning, made Metoro think of 'splashing-water'. January 3 = Shaula 1 = manzil day number 232 (= 8 * 29).

Tupu te raau i te vai is not the same at tupu te rakau i te vai (in Ca11-14).

Rakau

Raau, medicine, remedy, drug. Ra'a'u, scratch on the skin. Rakau, a plant. Râkau, goods, property. Vanaga.

1. Wood; rakau ta, cudgel, stick. P Pau.: rakau, tree, to dress a wound. Mgv.: rakau, wood, timber, a tree; medicine, a remedy; an object. Mq.: ákau, wood, tree. Ta.: raáu, id. 2. Medicine, remedy, potion, ointment, furniture, any precious object, resources, baggage, riches, heritage, dowry, merchandise, treasure, wealth; rakau hakaneinei, purgative; rakau nui, rich, opulent; rakau kore, poor, beggar, indigent, miserable, an inferior; hakakamikami ki te rakau, to impoverish; rakau o te miro, ballast. Mq.: akau, anything in general. The medicine sense is particularized in Tonga, Nukuoro, Hawaii, Tahiti, Mangareva, Paumotu. In no other speech does wood stand so fully for wealth of possessions, but it will be recalled that Rapanui is destitute of timber and depends wholly upon driftwood. Churchill.
