Once again. The peculiar silent (beak not open) bird where Sirrah culminated might possibly have been intended to illustrate the idea of 'turning around'.
The kuhane (dream soul) of Hau Maka (sleeping soundly in Hiva) - when she was moving through the Night - would mostly go straight ahead like the birds, but when reaching certain cardinal points in her journey she would change her path into a curve (in order to look around searchingly): ... The dream soul came to Rangi Meamea and looked around searchingly. The dream soul spoke: 'Here at last is level land where the king can live.' She named the place 'Rangi Meamea A Hau Maka O Hiva'. The mountain she named 'Peke Tau O Hiti A Hau Maka O Hiva'. The dream soul moved along a curve from Peke Tau O Hiti to the mountain Hau Epa, which she named 'Maunga Hau Epa A Hau Maka O Hiva' ... [E:10] And from Alcyone to Nihal there were 25 days. Addition was a universal tool, accessible to everyone.
The glyph at Alcyone has been drawn exactly as that at Nihal - they should be considered together.
Maúga. 1. Last; aga maúga o te Ariki o Hotu Matu'a, King Hotu Matua's last work. 2. Hill, mountain. Mouga, moúga. Last; vânaga moúga o te Ariki O Hotu Matu'a, the last words of King Hotu Matu'a. Vanaga. Mauga kore, impalpable. Mouga. 1. Enough, that's all, at last. 2. Mountain, ridge of hills; mouga iti, hillock; tua mouga, mountain top; hiriga mouga; hillside, declivity, slope. P Pau.: mahuga, mountain. Mgv.: mou, maga, mountain. Mq.: mouna, mouka, peak or crest of a mountain. Ta.: maua, moua, mountain. 3. Extinction, end, interruption, solution; te mouga o te hiriga, end of a voyage; pagaha mouga kore, without consolation. 4. To get. Churchill.
And because addition would have been used in all the rongorongo texts it would be possible to put them in parallel, to create a 'Rosetta Stone' in time-space so to say:
The only limit would be the Imagination (the Cosmos of Pictures). 81 = 3 * 3 * 3 and 243 = 3 * 3 * 3 * 3. Below we can see the Owl of Minerva:
