Beyond Ca2-6 there are more glyphs of the vai type. If I have guessed right, then it is hardly a coincidence that both line Ca2 and Aa2 have vai glyphs.

*Only vai* with double rims (including Aa2-37 and Ca2-5).**

Vai with single rims.

I have red-marked Ca2-7 because I suspect that vai and manu rere have similar meanings. In Sunday they both occur:


Hb9-17	Hb9-18	Hb9-19	Hb9-20	Hb9-21

Maybe Hb9-19 corresponds to Na5-113:


Na5-110	Na5-111	Na5-112	Na5-113	Na5-114	Na5-115	Na5-116

A closer look at the surroundings reveals more similarities (for example between Na5-106 and Ca2-4):


Na5-101	Na5-102	Na5-103	Na5-104	Na5-105	Na5-106	Na5-107

Na5-108	Na5-109	Na5-110	Na5-111	Na5-112	Na5-113

Na5-114	Na5-115	Na5-116	Na5-117
					Probably some 3-4 glyphs are missing here.
Na5-118	Na5-119	Na5-120	Na5-121	Na5-122	Probably some 3-4 glyphs are missing here.

Beyond Ca2-20 we find what probably is solar periods:

1				3 glyphs in period 1, 10 in periods 2-4 and 12 in periods 5-7.

Furthermore, there are 26 glyphs at the beginning of the Mamari text and they are divided into two groups with 18 respectively 8 glyphs:

						Adding Ca1-18 and Ca1-25--26 to the 7 periods above we reach 9 periods.
Ca1-1	Ca1-2	Ca1-3	Ca1-4	Ca1-5	Ca1-6

Ca1-7	Ca1-8	Ca1-9	Ca1-10	Ca1-11	Ca1-12

Ca1-13	Ca1-14	Ca1-15	Ca1-16	Ca1-17	Ca1-18

Ca1-19	Ca1-20	Ca1-21	Ca1-22	Ca1-23	Ca1-24	Ca1-25	Ca1-26

Possibly, though, we should add also a period which ends with Ca2-5, thereby reaching a more reasonable 10 periods.

1		18	5		3	8		5

	Ca2-23

There is, furthermore, another set of these glyphs, presumably defining moon periods:


Ca14-211	Cb2-7	Cb2-16	Cb2-22	Cb2-24	Cb2-25

Cb3-2	Cb3-6	Cb3-12	Cb3-15	Cb3-20	Cb4-2
