The last line on the back side of the P tablet is approaching its end. Perhaps we can find its end date, by etrapolating from niu and by assuming there are 3 glyphs for every day. In a first step we can reach day 50 beyond the end of the previous Gregorian year, the kava night according to G:
I have so far arranged in parallel the glyphs of H and P, but this is no longer an easy task, because by assigning 3 glyphs for each day my earlier system breaks down - the dates are not the same. I will therefore no longer show the H and P texts in parallel. Let's first conclude the P text before we look at the glyphs in H again:
1155 / 3 = 385 and 365 + 56 = 421. The difference between 421 and 385 is 36, where 36 is equal to the difference between the Gregorian day numbers and the glyph numbers according to G:
The last glyph of P seems to coincide with the beginning of Gregorian day 58:
Rei in the preceding glyph seems to indicate time goes on, that this is not the end. This conclusion is apparently supported by the numbers, with 11-59 at one side and 1159 on the other side of Rei, thus underlining its importance. However, every triad of glyphs from Pb11-10 onwards is characterized by this property. 1158 / 3 = 386 = 2 * 193. Possibly February 26 was the place for a leap day. 193 - 57 = 136 (equal to the day number when Atlas rose heliacally, May 16). We can compare with the data for Antares derived earlier (see Fish-hook of Maui):
