The last kuhane station mentioned in the text of G is Hanga Takaure. According to 'Excursion' in the poporo 'chapter' of the glyph dictionary:
The last glyph on side b, Gb8-30, is the point from which to count to Hanga Te Pau (366). The origin of the sun is at the last glyph on side b. For moon it is the opposite - the end of the moon is the first glyph on side a.
On the other hand there is a profound difference: Moon ends her journey at the same glyph as where her journey began, while the journey of the sun (at least as far as have been ascertained so far) ends when there are still 8 * 13 = 104 glyphs left:
There are two hanga glyphs for the moon, but only one for the sun. As if to compensate Gb8-30 clearly shows two (although being a singular entity). There are 2 glyphs for each day in Tahua and we should count 2 * 472 = 944. After reducing with 42 (which are glyphs at the end of side b) we have 902 left. But side a has no more than 670 glyphs and we must continue on to side b and there count to glyph number 232. 42 + 670 + 167 + 65 = 944 = 2 * 472: We conclude that Ab3-65 should be at Hanga Te Pau:
A double ihe tau glyph serves as the mark (together with the following Ab3-66):
Most interesting is to find 3-65 and 3-66 here at Hanga Takaure, the moon equivalent of Hanga Te Pau, because the numbers probably allude to 365 and 366. Once again ihe tau appears (earlier at Aa7-4 marking Hua Reva). The end of the 2nd half of the cycle apparently could be announced here. At the same time Rei in Ab3-60 ('360') is enabling the next cycle and at Ab3-62 (hanau) the birth (hanau) is illustrated.
Maybe the top part of tara glyphs, as in Ab3-61, means hanga?
And when we have observed this, we will find another similarity:
