The central glyph in each triplet should be the main one, which
the numbers possibly are confirming. 6 and 8 could allude to 148
because 6 * 8 = 48 and because 24 (= 14 + 10) * 10 = 240.
Counted from the beginning of the text (at Ca1-1) glyph line
Cb10 is number 14. The number of 'feathers' are 14 in both
Cb10-9 and Cb10-10.
Though I have counted to
240 at Cb10-10 from Cb1-1. If
we add the glyphs from side a (which are 392 in number), it
becomes 632. And if we count 6 * 32 = 192 the picture of a
'hidden sun' agrees with not only 192 (= 8 * 24) but also with 240
(= 8 * 30).
It may all be coincidences. But the hard to avoid idea of
392 = 192 + 200 for side a will naturally lead to the idea of
348 (side b) = 148 (also the ordinal number of Ca6-8) + 200.
Maybe we should divide the number of glyphs in the 'Moon season'
with 2 in order to reach the number of days (or rather nights). 148
+ 100 = 248 and 192 + 100 = 292.
248 + 292 = 540 = 360 +
180:

... Shall one add
Angkor
to the list? It has five gates, and to each of them leads a
road, bridging over that water ditch which surrounds the whole
place. Each of these roads is bordered by a row of huge stone
figures, 108 per avenue, 54 on each side, altogether 540 statues
of Deva and
Asura,
and each row carries a huge
Naga
serpent with nine heads. Only, they do not 'carry' that serpent,
they are shown to 'pull' it, which indicates that these 540
statues are churning the Milky Ocean, represented (poorly,
indeed) by the water ditch, using
Mount Mandara
as a churning staff, and
Vasuki,
the prince of the
Nagas,
as their drilling rope ...
