Lightning comes from above, and so does light. Among the Maya - I remember - 'above' was in the north. Friction generates fire and the axle of the earth turns around at the poles, the great 'mill' of Hamlet.

A good example in the text of G is how at the kuhane station Hatinga Te Kohe (Gb5-1) a normal hau tea is followed by reversed one. The reversed hau tea should mean the opposite of 'white cloth' - viz. 'dark cloth': Gb4-33 Gb5-1 354 355 354 (the ordinal number counted from Gb8-30) = 12 * 29.5, i.e. 12 lunar months. The measure 354 evidently means a 12-month year with 29.5 days in each month, and this year ends at Hatinga Te Kohe (where the kuhane stepped on and broke the 'bamboo staff', kohe). Te Kohe refers to a year which is 354 days long, we can conclude. (Other years existed in parallel, e.g. with durations of 360 days or 364 days.)

Does He Anakena begin with Gb5-1 or is it determined by another of the possible year measures? The evidence in G suggests it should be here (at the end of 12 lunar months) a new 'fire' (illustrated by hua) will be born:

 

Gb4-18	Gb4-19	Gb4-20	Gb4-21	Gb4-22
Gb4-23	Gb4-24	Gb4-25	Gb4-26	Gb4-27
Gb4-28	Gb4-29	Gb4-30	Gb4-31	Gb4-32
Gb4-33	Gb5-1	Gb5-2	Gb5-3	Gb5-4

In Gb5-2 the past (left) has another quality than the future (right). We recognize at left the sign which appeared earlier in the text, beyond midsummer. At right in Gb5-2 there are 6 + 6 = 12 'feathers', while at left in Gb1-8 (118 glyphs earlier) one of the 'feathers' is missing - or rather has developed into a hua poporo sign.

Gb1-4	Gb1-5	Gb1-6	Gb1-7	Gb1-8
Gb1-9	Gb1-10	Gb1-11	Gb1-12
Gb1-13	Gb1-14	Gb1-15	Gb1-16	Gb1-17
Gb1-18	Gb1-19

In Gb5-3 both a hua (with 4 + 3 = 7 'feathers) is generated and a thread with dangling 'ball'. 4 is at left ('winter') and 3 at right ('day'). A dangling 'three quarter ball' at left in Gb1-9 is presumably connected with the one at right in Gb5-3:

 

Gb1-6	Gb1-7 (236)	Gb1-8	Gb1-9	Gb1-10
Gb4-33	Gb5-1 (354)	Gb5-2	Gb5-3	Gb5-4

Gb4-27 (with ordinal number 348 = 12 * 29) is the same type of glyph as in Maunga Hau Epa, indicating it is time to ignite a new fire:

Ga8-2	Ga8-3	Ga8-4	Ga8-5	Ga8-6	Ga8-7	Ga8-8

But we have not 'proven' that the solar month He Anakena is beginning at a time determined by 12 * 29.5 nights of the moon.

The presence of the sun is only about half a year, not a year. Therefore, we should calculate with 6 * 29.5 = 177 days rather than 354 (if we let the moon determine time).

Maybe Te Puoko Uri together with Hua Reva together determine the life of the sun:

Ga5-8 (118)	Gb1-7 (236)	Gb3-5 (295)
177 = 6 * 29.5

I think 'feather marks' (maro) could have been used to define the boundaries of the sun.

17
	Ga5-4	Ga5-5	Ga5-6	Ga5-7	Ga5-8	Ga5-9
18
	Ga5-10	Ga5-11	Ga5-12	Ga5-13	Ga5-14	Ga5-15	Ga5-16

Once again a Maunga Hau Epa glyph (Ga5-13) could be associated with the need of generating fire.

In Ga5-15 we can understand sun appearing at right. Ga5-14 (number 224) seems to be balancing on the border. At left in the 'roof' of Ga5-15 the Y-sign could be a sign for the moon.

Of the 6 + 6 = 12 rising maro 'feathers' in Ga5-15 half (3 + 3 = 6) maybe will have 'wilted' at Gb1-7, after 4 * 29.5 - 7 =  111 days.
