Instead of the manzil stars Alterf (λ Leonis) and Al Jabhah (η Leonis) the Hindu system has the singular Regulus (α Leonis), which rose only 0.3 days after Al Jabhah. But its RA fraction is not .4 as that for η.

For interpreting the glyphs we probably have to look at the stations in the night. 23h = RA day 350.0 = 50 weeks and beyond this point the dead body would harbour new growth.

... When the man, Ulu, returned to his wife from his visit to the temple at Puueo, he said, 'I have heard the voice of the noble Mo'o, and he has told me that tonight, as soon as darkness draws over the sea and the fires of the volcano goddess, Pele, light the clouds over the crater of Mount Kilauea, the black cloth will cover my head. And when the breath has gone from my body and my spirit has departed to the realms of the dead, you are to bury my head carefully near our spring of running water. Plant my heart and entrails near the door of the house. My feet, legs, and arms, hide in the same manner.

The noble Moko spoke about the near future, which was death (the black cloth), departing of the spirit, and burial. If all was properly executed then growth would follow:

Then lie down upon the couch where the two of us have reposed so often, listen carefully throughout the night, and do not go forth before the sun has reddened the morning sky. If, in the silence of the night, you should hear noises as of falling leaves and flowers, and afterward as of heavy fruit dropping to the ground, you will know that my prayer has been granted: the life of our little boy will be saved.' And having said that, Ulu fell on his face and died.

His wife sang a dirge of lament, but did precisely as she was told, and in the morning she found her house surrounded by a perfect thicket of vegetation. 'Before the door,' we are told in Thomas Thrum's rendition of the legend, 'on the very spot where she had buried her husband's heart, there grew a stately tree covered over with broad, green leaves dripping with dew and shining in the early sunlight, while on the grass lay the ripe, round fruit, where it had fallen from the branches above. And this tree she called Ulu (breadfruit) in honor of her husband ...

The 4th moko glyph has no ihe tau in front, instead it appears to have been shifted to the preceding glyph. In my outline glyph type dictionary I have suggested the image is that of a broken canoe:

The glyph type ihe tau appears at the close of calendars, or at the end of main sections of calendars.

The picture is that of a moon crescent broken in half, which conveys suggestions of a time when growing no longer continues - i.e. a state of death ...

"…to enter a war canoe from either the stern or the prow was equivalent to a 'change of state or death'. Instead, the warrior had to cross the threshold of the side-strakes as a ritual entry into the body of his ancestor as represented by the canoe. The hull of the canoe was regarded as the backbone of their chief. In laments for dead chiefs, the deceased are often compared to broken canoes awash in the surf." (D. C. Starzecka,  Maori Art and Culture.)

The star Manubrium (ο Sagittarii) rose heliacally in January 4 and from this we can guess the backbone - the last part of the body - might be with the Sun 181 days later, in July 4 (185):

... The sternum (from Greek στέρνον, sternon, 'chest'; plural 'sternums' or 'sterna') or breastbone is a long flat bony plate shaped like a capital 'T' located anteriorly to the heart in the center of the thorax (chest). It connects to the rib bones via cartilage, forming the anterior section of the rib cage with them, and thus helps to protect the lungs, heart and major blood vessels from physical trauma. Although it is fused, the sternum can be sub-divided into three regions: the manubrium, the body, and the xiphoid process ...
