The 9th kuhane station (or 8th if only those on the island are counted) is Hua Reva, where the king drank water. From poporo in the glyph dictionary:

The 9th station is Hua Reva with ordinal number 295 = 10 * 29.5 and the numbers all indicate an end station.   9. Hua Reva Gb3-5 (295) The picture in Gb3-5 is a composition with takaure in the center of an oval form which we recognize as vai (water). "Among Hotu Matua's last accomplishments were his attempts to dig wells (anga i te vai, TP:53) along the shore of Akahanga. My informants did not mention these endeavors, but since Easter Island has neither stream nor wells, the supply of fresh water, aside from the three crater lakes, presents a real problem (HM:281-292). Recent trial excavations in the area of Akahanga have shown that this area was ideal for the establishment of wells. The dying king has his foster child bring him his last drink of water (vai maunga mo unu) from neighboring Hua Reva, a sure indication of the success of his last efforts to better the lot of the settlers (TP:55). After leaving the residence at Akahanga, Hotu Matua goes to the northern rim of the volcano Rano Kau." (Barthel 2) At the rim of Rano Kau king Hotu falls on his face and dies. The king is a kind of reincarnation on earth of the sun, and appropriately taking a drink of water illustrates how his 'fire' (life force) is quenched. In Gb3-5 we should 'read' the king immersed in water, i.e. he has become a takaure, a spirit. He has returned to Hiva.

The situation is similar to that at Hanga Te Pau - sun (not 'sun') is finished. In the Tahua version of Hanga Te Pau a variant of tapa mea is leaning forwards, as if on the verge of falling on its face:

 

Ab1-13	Ab1-14	Ab1-15	Ab1-16
Ab1-17	Ab1-18 (730)	Ab1-19	Ab1-20

Presumably that is exactly the meaning of a glyph leaning forward. We can compare with the '4th viri':

 

Aa5-7	Aa8-26	Ab1-1	Ab7-26
Although quite similar they are nevertheless not exactly alike. Ab1-1 is harmoniously drawn, but shorter than Ab7-26. Aa8-26 has a thick bottom 'tail' end, whereas Ab7-26 contrariwise has a thick upper 'tail'. Aa5-7 and Aa8-26 are drawn as if deformed. Neither the top part nor the bottom part in Aa5-7 is thick, and the glyph is slightly bent forward, as if it was old.

In Gb2-32 an ugly, old and deformed tao is also ready to fall on its face:

Gb2-32 (287)	Gb2-33	Gb2-34	Gb2-35	Gb3-1
Gb3-2	Gb3-3	Gb3-4	Gb3-5 (295)	Gb3-6

In Sunday we now can understand why rau hei in Hb9-19 is leaning forward, next stage is to be a spirit (manu rere):

Hb9-17	Hb9-18	Hb9-19	Hb9-20	Hb9-21

Hua Reva has no definite article and there are no feathers in Gb2-32. Te Pau in Hanga Te Pau has a definite article, and there are feathers in Ab1-17. In Sunday there are no feathers - how could it be when it is nighttime? Vai in Hb9-18 has only a thread-like border.

Now it is time to use our model for locating cardinal points in A. We must multiply 295 by two, because there are two glyphs for each day in Tahua. 295 * 2 = 590.

Then we have to start counting from pito at Ab8-43:

	588
Ab8-43 (1)		Aa7-48

590 - 42 (the number of glyphs on side b) = 548. There are 500 glyphs in the first 6 lines (both numbers indicating the fire of the sun):

 

Aa7-48 is part of what looks like a kind of calendar. This is one of its 'periods':

Aa7-42	Aa7-43	Aa7-44	Aa7-45	Aa7-46	Aa7-47	Aa7-48 (590)
Aa7-49	Aa7-50	Aa7-51	Aa7-52

Line Aa7 is exceptional in Tahua, because it contains no internal or external parallel sequences of glyphs.

These circumstances makes it unlikely to find any clear signs of Hua Reva here. Ihe tau in Aa7-48 probably indicates 'death' or something similar, but so it is in all the 'periods'. Comparing those ihe tau with each other we can see that Aa7-48 is the 4th and last of its variant in the calendar:

Aa7-19	Aa7-26	Aa7-36	Aa7-48
Aa7-57	Aa7-68	Aa7-72	Aa7-81

4 indicates the 'quadrangular earth' has been circumnavigated.

7-48 in (Aa7-48) can be regarded as 14 * 24 = 336. If we count only the kuhane stations on the island, Hua Reva is the 8th and 8 * 29.5 = 236.

8 * 48 = 16 * 24 = 384 could be a way to count across the 'gap' between the years, a way to 'leap'. In G the 16th kuhane station (16 * 29.5 = 472) accomplishes such a 'leap'.

We should search for the 16th kuhane station in A.
