Among the 8 Moon calendar tagata rere glyphs two are worthy of special attention:

Ca6-18 Ca6-26 Ca7-9 Ca7-18 Ca7-26
Ca8-5 Ca8-12 Ca8-23 Ca8-25 Ca9-10

They could in some way correspond to the two Sun tagata rere glyphs we have been studying:

not 'pregnant' exceptional arm
Ca8-12 Ca2-11 Ca7-9 Ca12-12

In the table above I have included also two tagata glyphs because of their positions in the text and because both are looking back and have upraised arms in the same design as all the other glyphs. Except Ca8-25, which with its moe sign should be announcing the beginning of a new cycle. No other tagata glyphs in C are looking back.

Ca7-9 and Ca8-12 will be looked at here.

 

If Ca8-25 announces the beginning of a new cycle it could be one with 168 days, because Ca8-25 is glyph number 224 counted from Ca1-1 and 392 - 224 = 168. And there are 168 glyphs up to the end of line Ca6:

166 53 167
Ca6-27 Ca6-28 Ca7-1 Ca8-24 Ca8-25 (224) Ca8-26
168 = 21 * 8 56 = 7 * 8 168 = 21 * 8
392 = 7 * 56 = 49 * 8

224 = 28 * 8 = 4 * 56. Therefore, 168 must be 3 * 56. The structure defined by tagata rere moe is:

166 53 167
Ca6-27 Ca6-28 Ca7-1 Ca8-24 Ca8-25 (224) Ca8-26
4 * 56 = 8 * 28 3 * 56 = 6 * 28
392 = 14 * 28

I must add a page for these results by inserting a link:

This is the new page:

 

If Ca8-25 announces the beginning of a new cycle it could be one with 168 days, because Ca8-25 is glyph number 224 counted from Ca1-1 and 392 - 224 = 168.

And there are 168 glyphs up to the end of line Ca6:

167 54 167
Ca6-28 Ca7-1 Ca8-25 (224) Ca8-26
168 = 21 * 8 56 = 7 * 8 168 = 21 * 8
392 = 7 * 56 = 49 * 8

224 = 28 * 8 = 4 * 56. Therefore, 168 must be 3 * 56. The structure defined by tagata rere moe probably is meant to be:

167 54 167
Ca6-28 Ca7-1 Ca8-25 (224) Ca8-26
4 * 56 = 8 * 28 3 * 56 = 6 * 28
392 = 14 * 28

 

The pair of sequences with 168 glyphs define a midsection betweeen them with 7 * 8 = 56 = 4 * 14 glyphs. This square of fortnights (if each glyph refers to a night) is:

Ca7-1 Ca7-2 Ca7-3 Ca7-4 Ca7-5 Ca7-6 Ca7-7
Ca7-8 Ca7-9 Ca7-10 Ca7-11 Ca7-12 Ca7-13 Ca7-14
Ca7-15 Ca7-16 Ca7-17 Ca7-18 Ca7-19 Ca7-20 Ca7-21
Ca7-22 Ca7-23 Ca7-24 Ca7-25 Ca7-26 Ca7-27 Ca7-28
Ca7-29 Ca7-30 Ca7-31 Ca8-1 Ca8-2 Ca8-3 Ca8-4
Ca8-5 Ca8-6 Ca8-7 Ca8-8 Ca8-9 Ca8-10 Ca8-11
Ca8-12 Ca8-13 Ca8-14 Ca8-15 Ca8-16 Ca8-17 Ca8-18
Ca8-19 Ca8-20 Ca8-21 Ca8-22 Ca8-23 Ca8-24 Ca8-25

Ca7-1 is Mercury and the jumbled glyph affirms this interpretation.

Ca8-25 is Saturn which also seems reasonable, the tired (moe) bird is remarkably young - perhaps indicating the new Sun, the son. If so, then this Son has 168 days in front of him. Moon will shine from joy during 6 * 28 nights.

Ca8-12 is not pregnant and the head is exceptionally great:

4th quarter of 14 glyphs
Ca8-12 Ca8-13 Ca8-14 (213) Ca8-15 Ca8-16 Ca8-17 Ca8-18
Ca8-19 Ca8-20 Ca8-21 Ca8-22 Ca8-23 Ca8-24 Ca8-25 (224)

In Ca8-15 rima auaue touches the last ihe tau flame of the sun. It is a Mercury day. Then comes father light (Jupiter), with spreading out wings, followed by 5 marama nights.

In Ca8-24 the uplifted and reversed marama seems to allude to Hua Reva.

Mars in Ca8-14 ought to define the end point of a cycle (by cause of 8 and 14). 8 * 14 = 2 * 56 = 112 = 213 - 101:

111
Ca4-21 Ca4-22 Ca4-23 Ca4-24 (100) Ca4-25 Ca8-14 (213)
