For the moment the first unnumberd line in the glyph dictionary looks like this:

Some of the new additional glyph types have been encountered while writing about the glyph types at the beginning of the dictionary, and their meanings have been at least partially explained. A 'first level' documentiation of the additional glyph types must, though, wait until all the regular GD:s have been describred (up to and including hura at GD88).

Potentially, the additional glyph types threaten the glyph dictionary - they cannot be too many or there will be no end in sight. On the other hand, if they are part of the fundamental 'vocabulary' of rongorongo they must be described.
