Many valuable ideas have emerged from the first calendar (I) of the Paris Snuff Box. Counting planets we should begin anew with each glyph line. Beyond the first 180 days of the year 2 glyphs are needed for 1 unit of time. The season of Mars is not spring but the 120 days beyond.

Venus rules the first 60 days of the season beyond the first 180 days of the year. Then Saturn rules the last (5th) 60-day season (of the 300-day long calendar).

Mercury has his place both at the beginning and the end of the 'back side' (day 220 respectively day 300).

Moon has an important function on the front side, where she marks the end of the 3 'flames' (at day 60, 120, and 180). Although the first 60 days are on the back side, no henua yet visible.

Jupiter has a somewhat similar function on the back side, because he is also located at 3 places:

autumn
Jupiter	Mercury	Jupiter	Jupiter	Sun	Mercury
*Ya3-2	*Yb1-1	*Yb1-2	*Yb2-2	*Yb2-5	*Yb2-8
200	220	240	270	290	300

At koti (Yb2-2) the normal thumb has been changed into one drawn with a single string. 2 * 2 = 4 (in Yb2-2) and instead of reading the hand as 5 (rima) we should here read 4, probably because a quarter is ending here. Possibly the quarter referred to is 4 * 66 = 264.

The single strand thumb could possibly help us translate ua into 2 * 3 = 6:

However, this model supports also counting the arms as 2:

The second calendar (II) has 16 + 8 = 24 glyphs:

II	Yc	Yd	Sum
	10	8	18
	6	-	6
	16	8	24

Yd has been labelled as line Yc3 by me:

*Yc1-1	*Yc1-2	*Yc1-3	*Yc1-4	*Yc1-5	*Yc1-6	*Yc1-7
			3 + 7 = 10
*Yc1-8	*Yc1-9	*Yc1-10
						6
*Yc2-1	*Yc2-2	*Yc2-3	*Yc2-4	*Yc2-5	*Yc2-6
*Yc3-1	*Yc3-2	*Yc3-3	*Yc3-4	*Yc3-5	*Yc3-6	*Yc3-7
	8
*Yc3-8

I presume the creator of the Y text has been consistent and coloured anew from the beginning of every glyph line.

No boldfaced dots can be seen (if we exclude the eyes of gagana at Yc3-5). Less 'outspoken' dots can, though, be seen:

Saturn	Sun	Moon	Jupiter	Saturn	Sun	Mercury
*Yc1-4	*Yc1-5	*Yc1-6	*Yc1-9	*Yc2-4	*Yc3-5	*Yc3-8

Possibly the 4th fish (which has no dot) represents autumn. 3 fishes for spring and then one for Mars.

Ua in Yc2-4 - where 2 * 4 = 8 - does not satisfy the idea of counting it as 6. Maybe 8 refers to the 'night' of the year (ruled by the Moon) and maybe 6 must be divided by 2 because Sun is weak. Season number 2 will have two (3-fingered) hands, but waning means they should be reversed.

Or rather '2-4' means the '2nd part of the year' where the 4th quarter is.

Glyph number 5 at Sun could represent the dark season (gagana) when next year will be born.

There is no dot at Yc1-2.

Looking again at the structure we ought to change the place of Yc2-1 to be a last glyph instead of having a first position. With a few other changes the result is 2 + 7 + 2 = 11 glyphs in a first group and 6 + 4 + 3 = 13 glyphs in a second group:

*Yc1-1	*Yc1-2
*Yc1-3	*Yc1-4	*Yc1-5	*Yc1-6	*Yc1-7	*Yc1-8	*Yc1-9
*Yc1-10	*Yc2-1

*Yc2-2	*Yc2-3	*Yc2-4	*Yc2-5	*Yc2-6	*Yc3-1
*Yc3-2	*Yc3-3	*Yc3-4	*Yc3-5
*Yc3-6	*Yc3-7	*Yc3-8

11 in the first group possibly should be read as 20 * 11 = 220. Henua in Yc1-10 will then be at 200. In calendar I Mercury has position Yb1-1 at 220.

The other such henua (Yc3-6) is glyph number 22 in the calendar. Another 3 * 6 = 180 days possibly are alluded to. 220 + 180 = 400. 20 * 24 = 480, but adding Yc3-7--8 will not reach further than to 400 + 2 * 20 = 440.

Koti in Yc3-4 is glyph number 20. Possibly calendar II is based on a cycle of 400 (while calendar I is using 300).

Yet, if we add Yc1-1--2 to the end at Yc3-8, the second group will be 15 glyphs, which could represent 300 days:

9 * 20 = 180
	*Yc1-3	*Yc1-4	*Yc1-5	*Yc1-6	*Yc1-7	*Yc1-8 (120)	*Yc1-9
	*Yc1-10	*Yc2-1

15 * 20 = 300
	*Yc2-2	*Yc2-3	*Yc2-4 (240)	*Yc2-5	*Yc2-6	*Yc3-1
	*Yc3-2	*Yc3-3	*Yc3-4 (360)	*Yc3-5	*Yc3-6 (400)
	*Yc3-7	*Yc3-8	*Yc1-1	*Yc1-2

Now it looks better. Koti in Yc3-4 will be glyph number 9 in the second group. 180 + 180 = 360.

Henua at Yc3-6 will be at day 20 * 20 = 400. That's when the cycle should end. It is the day of Moon.

At henua in Yc1-10 it is day number 160 and it is a Venus day. 400 - 160 = 240, that is the measure for autumn we learned from calendar I. Ua in Yc2-4 agrees.

Mercury in Yc2-1 identifies where the first 180 days are ending. By changing the position of Yc1-1--2 to the end of the calendar Mercury will be there too. Twice, indeed, because he also has Yc3-8.

He also appears in Yc3-1, where the day number is 300, probably alluding to how Sun has reached midsummer (when we count 10 * 30 beginning at winter solstice). A crack is seen at right.

Saturn rules ua at Yc2-4 and 250 occurs in the middle of this 20-day period.

It looks rather acceptable. But what is Mercury doing at day 120? Is his rule beginning so early? 4 * 30 = 120, and a 'square' is finished.
