The link 'other descriptions' leads to a series of pages, the first of which is:

 

By changing the perspective slightly we can equally well see a pattern with 140 (twice 70) glyphs centrally located:

44 37 102 44
Ga2-14 (45) Ga3-23 (83) Ga7-16 (186)
45 140 45

230 is here perceived as the sum of 90 and 140, which numbers can be regarded as a quarter of 360 days respectively a quarter of a 'grand double month' with twice 280 days.

I.e., 140 is equal to 10 * 14 and a fortnight is the structural equivalent of 90 days. There are 4 times 90 in 360 and 4 times 14 in 56.

A week has 7 nights and there are 8 weeks in 2 months, if we count them as 28 nights (those nights when moon is shining).

There are 8 periods of 45 days in 2 halfyears, if we count them as 180 days.

 

140 is here explained as a quarter of 560 (= 360 + 200).

560 - 472 = 88. Of those 200 only 4 * 28 come inside 472. Maybe 88 = 28 + 60, because 472 + 28 = 500.

And beyond 360 we then will have 5 * 28 = 140 (if we count to 500).

Ga1-26 Ga1-27 Ga1-28 (500) Ga1-29 Ga1-30

If we count ordinal numbers from Rei in Ga1-30, more harmonious numbers emerge than if we count from Gb8-30:

14 37 102 44
Ga2-14 (15) Ga3-23 (53) Ga7-16 (156)
15 140 45
200

156 = 12 * 13 and 200 = 60 + 140, which we recognize from earlier above at the end of the cycle of 560:

       
Ga1-30 (1) Ga8-26 (200) Gb5-6 (330) Gb8-30 (442) Ga1-28 (470) Ga1-29
200 130 140
470

To reach 500 and 560 we have to move on a quarter:

     
Gb5-6 (330) Gb8-30 (442) Ga1-28 (470) Ga1-29 Ga2-29 (30)
140 30
Ga5-4 Ga5-5 Ga5-6 Ga5-7 Ga5-8 Ga5-9 (90)
