Possibly they should be regarded as the beginning of the Moon calendar. There are 16 days between August 4 (216) and the Moon calendar, 16 days from 9h to 10h:

Etoru kiore, the 3 'rats', possibly are 'zeroes' not to be counted in a postulated Moon station calendar. My idea is to first add 1 to 392 (the number of glyphs on side a) and then to exclude etoru kiore: 1 + 392 - 3 = 390 = 13 * 30. March 21 is RA day 0 and this probably explains why there is no glyph until the beginning of the next day. Therefore the number of days on side a could be 1 + the number of glyphs.
By a similar reasoning we have earlier arrived at 1 + 471 = 472 days for the G text as a whole. And in G there is a quartet of 'kiore' (Gb6-21--24); 1 + 471 - 4 = 468 = 13 * 36.
I guess there could be only 13 calendar days from August 5 up to and including August 20. I.e. the 3 days from August 15 up to and including August 17 could be outside my imagined Moon calendar. In G the corresponding days include a takaure in day 229, beyond the great tagata in Murzim 13 (92):
