Since I wrote this page things have become more complicated, there is another 'fire generator' earlier in the text:
According to Barthel's description of glyph line Ka1 the text has not been destroyed at the very beginning of the line - the first four glyphs were always 'spooky'. The first glyph line on side a has 19 visible glyphs and 5 not visible (destroyed or never having been there):
The glyph distance between Ka1-5 and Ka3-14 can be estimated as *19 (a1) + 22 (a2) + 13 (a3) = 54 (= 2 * 27). Clearly there were destroyed glyphs between Ka1-12 and *Ka1-17. But it is not certain that there ever was a glyph between *Ka1-18 and *Ka1-20. The ordinal number (19) could indicate a kind of pito. The ordinal numbers in Ka3-14 may allude to π, especially as it is glyph number 36 from the beginning of line Ka2. It is also number 60 from Ka1-1. 192 - 36 (Ka3-14) = 156 = 12 * 13. Ka1 has 4 'ghost' glyphs at the beginning, then follows approximately 20 glyphs. Ka2 is connected to Ka1 by the fact of viri (Ka2-5) being number 29. If we count from Ka1-5 it is Ka2-9 which will be number 29. Then follows Rei in Ka2-10. Between Rei in Ka2-10 and Rei in Ka3-15 there are 12 (Ka2) + 14 (Ka3) = 26 glyphs.

The rising fish in Ka3-1 has his mouth closed. A 'nut' head possibly is intended:
