Once again, the following is our 'upgraded' glyph line, although my description is beginning already 100 days beyond the end of the previous year. In April 10 the old year 'is stopped by a fishbone in his throat' (hakaraoa) and the manzil day number was that of the day of Antares' heliacal rising according to the Gregorian calendar:

Almuqaddam 4 5 (329)
April 9 (464) 10
Ca1-19 Ca1-20
te maitaki - te kihikihi hakaraoa - te henua
Horn, the 1st Chinese lunar station (i nika):

υ Virginis (216.5)       Head of the Fly (39.6), Kaffaljidhma (39.8) Right Wing (40.9), Bharani (41.4)

The manzil day numbers lead us past day 350 and to day 360 at the end of the glyph line:

Alrescha 1 2 3 4 (354)
May 2 3 4 5 (125)
Ca2-16 Ca2-17 Ca2-18 Ca2-19 (45)
erua tamaiti ki te huaga o te hoi hatu e tagata poo pouo
    Menkar (44.7)
Alrescha 5 6 7 8
May 6 7 (492) 8 (128) 9
Ca2-20 Ca2-21 Ca2-22 (48) Ca2-23
te vai e tino noho toona te Rei - pa hia mai kiore i te henua
3h (45.7)      
Alrescha 9 10 (360)
May 10 (130) 11
Ca2-24 Ca2-25
niu - kupega hia mai tu te niu - ku huki

Ca2-25 is glyph 51, but counting also the 'zero' day (March 21) it will represent day 52 (= 13 weeks).

A 2nd vai glyph arrives at 3h, but it is the same one as that 5 days earlier:

Al Muahkhar 9 (346) 3 Al Muahkhar 13 (350) 4 Alrescha 5 (355)
April 27 (117) May 1 May 6
Ca2-11 Ca2-15 Ca2-20 (46)
tagata oho ki roto o to vai ki te vai te vai
5 5

In G and at the heliacal rising of π Virginis there is another vai glyph with 3 'flames'. Its position is exactly 181 days beyond March 21:

142
Ca2-10 Ca2-11 (37)
υ Virginis (216.5)  
April 26 (116) 27
Ga5-6 (*180) Ga5-7 (118) Ga5-8 Ga5-9
η Crateris (179.9) π Virginis (181.0) ο Virginis (182.1) Alchita, Ma Wei (183.1)
September 17 (260) 18 19 12h (182.6)

Gregorian day 260 is September 17. And April 26 is 144 (= 12 * 12) days earlier. Therefore the distance from Ca2-11 to Ga5-7 should be 144 days. In Ga5-7 the neck of the person at left, running away, is very straight and high. 12h lies in front and Raven is approaching. A slight, but significant, indentation in front of the vai oval indicates the opposite of the slightly convex front of vai in Ca2-11.

April 26 is apparently where the Yoni nakshatra is beginning, probably a day similar to - but opposite in meaning to - day 260. The 'seat' (noho) of yoni could be illustrated by the sitting figure at left in Ca2-11.

"Yoni ...  is a Sanskrit word with different meanings, most basically 'vagina' or 'womb'. Its counterpart is the lingam. It is also the divine passage, or sacred temple ... The word can cover a range of extended meanings, including: place of birth, source, origin, spring, fountain, place of rest, repository, receptacle, seat, abode, home, lair, nest, stable ..."
