On the Paris Snuff Box the 3rd glyph is a hahe glyph and to its right there is a pure:

*Ya1-1 *Ya1-2 *Ya1-3 *Ya1-4 *Ya1-5 *Ya1-6

The first 6 glyphs in line Ya1 presumably should be paired with the 6 of line Yb3, which the signs seem to indicate (and in the following I will use glyph labels without any asterisks):

18 15 3
Ya3-5 Ya3-6 Ya3-7 Yb3-1 Yb3-2 Yb3-3
36 6
42

If so, then hahe at Ya1-3 will be glyph number 8 counted from the reversed vaha kai (maybe signifying 'birth') in Yb3-2:

 

6

 
Yb3-2 Ya1-3

 
 

Another hahe glyph, quite similar to Ya1-3, comes as number 13 counted from Yc2-1:

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 (13) Yc3-8

There is a reversed vaha kai in Yc1-3, but it seems to be connected with henua in Yc1-10 rather than with hahe in Yc3-7:

Yc1-1 Yc1-2 Yc1-3 (1)
Yc1-4 Yc1-5 Yc1-6 Yc1-7
Yc1-8 Yc1-9 Yc1-10 (8)

Maybe hahe here means 'the 2nd henua':

6 10
Yc1-3 (1) Yc1-10 (8) Yc2-1 Yc3-6 (20) Yc3-7
8 + 12 = 20

If the structure should be the same, we could then list:

6 10
Yb3-2 (1) Ya1-3 (8) Ya1-4 Ya3-1 (20) Ya3-2
8 + 12 = 20

We ought to look for more numerical clues relating to these two hahe glyphs.

 

8 + 12 is equal to 8 + (8 + 4):

6 6 2
Yb3-2 (1) Ya1-3 (8) Ya1-4 Ya2-5 (16) Ya2-6 Ya3-1 (20) Ya3-2
8 8 4
6 6 2
Yc1-3 (1) Yc1-10 (8) Yc2-1 Yc3-2 (16) Yc3-3 Yc3-6 (20) Yc3-7
8 8 4

With 16 as the basic full cycle number the distance to 20 must be a 'dog' only. The 4 bacabs could be such a 'dog', I guess. They indicate the 4 cardinal points.

The earth is like a cube with the top (Venus) and bottom (Saturn) squares separated. 4 + 4 = 8 is the number of corners.

Saturn owns the cube and he has the 2nd dog watch. But then we ought to change the pattern into:

2 2
Yb3-6 (1) Ya1-3 (4) Ya1-4 Ya2-1
4 4
Ya2-2 Ya2-3 Ya2-4 Ya2-5 Ya2-6 Ya2-7

However, this is evidently contradicted by the glyphs. The 4 marama glyphs cannot be separated, and Ya2-7 ought to be the last sign of Mars (as number 18 counted from reversed vaha kai in Yb3-2).
