However, the text appears to also describe the flow of time before the reforms of Julius Caesar, before his introduction of the Bissextum leap day. Because there are 22 glyphs between Ca1-2 and Ca1-25, which period therefore could correspond the 22 extra days in the old Roman Mensis Intercalaris:

... The ordinary year in the previous Roman calendar consisted of 12 months, for a total of 355 days. In addition, a 27-day intercalary month, the Mensis Intercalaris, was sometimes inserted between February and March. This intercalary month was formed by inserting 22 days after the first 23 or 24 days of February; the last five days of February, which counted down toward the start of March, became the last five days of Intercalaris. The net effect was to add 22 or 23 days to the year, forming an intercalary year of 377 or 378 days.

Ianuarius	29
Februarius 23	23
Mensis Intercalaris:
Extra days	22	27
Februarius 24-28	5

When the Mensis Intercalaris was used, it meant the extent of February was not 23 + 5 = 28 days but 23 + 22 + 5 = 50 days. Counting 'inclusive' the number of days was not 29 but 51 days.

In rongorongo times Algenib Pegasi rose with the Sun 50 days after March 21 and in the times of Al Sheratain the star of spring light was in RA day 340 = 290 + 50:

The leading star of Aries was Hamal (α), representing the constellation as a whole and appropriately placed at the head of the animal:

Applying the Roman method of incuding Martius 1 in the previous month means it became the last day (29) of Februarius:

... The leap day was introduced as part of the Julian reform. The day following the Terminalia (February 23) was doubled, forming the 'bis sextum - literally 'double sixth', since February 24 was 'the sixth day before the Kalends of March' using Roman inclusive counting (March 1 was the 'first day').

With Martius 2 began the Kalends of March, and 29 (Ianiarius) + Februarius (23 + 22 + 5 + 1 = 51) = 80 was the number of days before Martius 2.

However, the glyphs indicate a new beginning from Ca2-4 (29 + 1). Before Ca2-4 a standstill is illustrated with persons looking straight at us, but at the other side of the 'central ceremonial ground' (raaraa) the people are eating again as a sign of life having returned. The 'holes' were open again:
