4. Towards the end of Dawn Breaker (at day number 8 / 24 * 365¼ = 121.7) is another 'break' in the text flow (the first being the turnover from side b to side a):
Rei in Ga2-27 is the first glyph in the 8th hour and it is also the first glyph in a long sequence which seems to end not until 6 days before Antares:
Clearly this long sequence is meant to be a unit. The unit is divided into 31 groups of glyphs which I have named 'periods'. There are 31 glyphs similar to Ga3-5 and Ga7-10 and they are distributed seemingly without much order among the 180 - 57 = 123 glyphs which appear to constitute the total unit. But maybe we should let the sequence continue to glyph number 12h / 24h * 365¼ = 182.6:
If the calendar year should begin at Ga1-1, then half a year ought to end somewhere here. Exactly where is dependent on several factors, for instance the length of the assumed year. And maybe we should begin with Gb8-27 - at the beginning of 4h in order to reach an 'octave' (12h - 4h = 8h). On the other hand, by counting from spring equinox (0h) the day number at Ga7-13 will be 64 + 183 = 247, or 3 days before the heliacal rise of Antares:
When I thought about what name to give the part of the dictionary beyond Dawn Breaker the curious figure in what I have come to call the 'henua calendar' inspired me to see someone climbing a tree. Thus the name became Tree Climber:
