5. The companions of poor Kuukuu stayed for 27 days (perhaps alluding to Kissin rising heliacally in September 27, day 270) at Oromanga before they left him:

They stayed there, rested, and lamented the severely injured Kuukuu.

he tangi i te papaku ko kuukuu.

p. 28

Kuukuu said, 'Promise me, my friends, that you will not abandon me!'

he ki mai a kuukuu.e ui korua e aku hoa e o hoa i a au.

They all replied, 'We could never abandon you!'

he ki mai anake ina matou eko hoa. (crossed out: he noho i ora mae)

They stayed twenty-seven days in Oromanga.

he noho erua te angahuru mahitu te raa i oromanga.

p. 29

Every time Kuukuu asked, 'Where are you, friends?' they immediately replied in one voice, 'Here we are!'

ai ka ui no mai a kuukuu he korua e nga hoe e.ai ka hakahoki no mai te reo anake i matou

They had an idea, and Ira spoke, 'Hey, you! Bring the round stones (from the shore) and pile them into six heaps of stones!'

he topa te ki amua.he ki a Ira.he ro korua e ka too mai te pureva ki hakatuutuu kia ono pipi horeko

 

One of the youths said to Ira, 'Why do we want to do that?'

he ki mai te tahi ngaio kia ira.ai ka aha tatou.

Ira replied, 'So that we can all ask the stones to do something.'

he ki atu a Ira.ai ka ui tatou ki te pipi horeko.

They took (the material) for the stone heaps (pipi horeko) and piled up six heaps of stones at the outer edge of the cave.

he too mai i te pipi horeko he hakatuutuu eono pipi horeko i te hihi o te ana.

Then they all said to the stone heaps, 'Whenever he calls, whenever he calls for us, let your voices rush (to him) instead of the six (of us) (i.e.., the six stone heaps are supposed to be substitutes for the youths).'

he ki anake.ki te pipi horeko.ana ui mai ka ui mai ena kia matou e rere tokorua reo.

They all drew back to profit (from the deception) (? ki honui) and listened.

ao ono he neke mai anake ki honui he hakarongo atu.

A short while later, Kuukuu called. As soon as he had asked, 'Where are you?'

he ui mai a kuukuu ka ui mai era

the voices of the stone heaps replied, 'Here we are!'

he korua he o atu te reo o te Pipi horeko i matou

p. 30

All (the youths) said, 'Hey, you! That was well done!'

he ki anake he ro korua ku rivariva ana

Adding 22 days to July 22 should take us to day 203 + 22 = 225 (August 13):

Al Tarf (β Cancri) at manu kake in Ga3-1 has a name similar to Alterf (λ Leonis) and from Al Tarf to Alterf there are 144.4 - 125.3 = 19 days.

Half a year later (if counted as 300 days) it is time to once again light a fire. Perhaps we should go back in time 136 days (from Ga2-26) and see which star is passing the meridian at midnight in July 20. 136 - 57 = 79 which points us at glyph number 472 - 79 = 393:

Gb6-8 Gb6-9 Gb6-10 (393)

Turtles again. Could that in Gb6-10 be the one who broke the back of Kuukuu? The question if there is a prominent star at honu in Gb6-10 will have to wait.
