The 6th
text line is perhaps in a way
beginning not only 4
days earlier than with
glyph Ca6-1 but 15 days
earlier - with te Rei
and St James' day - i.e.
4 days later than the
ure
honu glyph (with Heap of
Fuel and 8h):

This my conclusion is drawn from the fact that with Ca6-17 the so-called Moon calendar is beginning. I will not begin to present this well ordered calendar until later, when considering the contents of line Ca7.
Above, then, there are 157 (= 314 / 2) - 137 = 20 new glyphs for contemplation. The Gilbertese Polynesians counted their months as 20 nights and the first manzil day (Sheratan 1) occurred 137 days after December 31.
