For the record, these 10 Rogo glyphs are all that I can find in H:

Ha5-18 Ha8-34 Ha10-35 Hb2-35 Hb6-45
Hb7-32 *Hb8-29 *Hb8-51 Hb9-1 Hb11-7

Only Hb11-7 has the peculiar right 'wing' sign we recognize from C:

   
Ca3-25 Ca4-8 Cb5-16

Hb11-7 has ordinal number 551 (= 19 * 29) counted from Hb1-1. If we add 648 (side a), the sum becomes 551 + 648 = 1199 (= 11 * 109). From Ha1-4 it will be 1199 - 3 = 1196 = 100 less than 1296. From Friday (Hb9-48) its glyph number will be 192 + 1196 = 1388 (= 92 + 1296).

The proper way to measure seems to be from Ha1-1 and divide by 3:

Hb10-64 Hb10-65 Hb10-66 Hb10-67 Hb11-1 Hb11-2
day 397 day 398
Hb11-3 Hb11-4 Hb11-5 Hb11-6 Hb11-7 Hb11-8 (1200)
day 399 day 400
Hb11-9 Hb11-10 Hb11-11 Hb11-12 Hb11-13 Hb11-14
day 401 day 402

Hb11-9 is the same type of glyph which appears e.g. at Ga7-21 and Ga7-30:

Ga7-18 Ga7-19 Ga7-20 Ga7-21 (191) Ga7-22 Ga7-23 Ga7-24
Ga7-25 Ga7-26 Ga7-27 Ga7-28 Ga7-29 Ga7-30 (200) Ga7-31

Koti at Hb6-39 seems to be connected with some earlier event than winter solstice. An event which arrives ca 400 - 314 = 86 days (a quarter) earlier should be autumn equinox:

Hb6-35 Hb6-36 Hb6-37 Hb6-38 Hb6-39 (941) Hb6-40
313 942 / 3 = 314
Hb6-41 Hb6-42 Hb6-43 Hb6-44 Hb6-45 Hb6-46
315 316

Once again, we started out from Friday:

940 352
Hb9-48 (1) Hb3-6 (942) Hb3-7 Hb9-47 (1296)
942 = 3 * 314 354 = 12 * 29.5

If we instead count from Ha1-1, the ordinal number for Hb3-6 will be 753 (equal to day 251, a prime number). Order is established by adding 64 days to 250 in order to reach koti at 314, and day 251 will instead connect to Rogo:

192
Hb3-4 Hb3-5 Hb3-6 (753) Hb6-44 Hb6-45 Hb6-46 (948)
251 64 316
66

The 'mock king' comes later:

232
Hb3-7 (1) Hb7-31 Hb7-32 Hb7-33
236 = 8 * 29.5

Counted from Ha1-1 he will be glyph number 988, the first glyph in day 330.

39
b6-44 Hb6-45 Hb6-46 (948) Hb7-32 Hb7-33 Hb7-34 (990)
day 316 13 day 330

Looking again at the group of 10 Rogo glyphs, we still have not defined the roles of e.g. Hb9-1. Day numbers are inserted:

Ha5-18 Ha8-34 Ha10-35 Hb2-35 Hb6-45 (316)
Hb7-32 (330) *Hb8-29 *Hb8-51 Hb9-1 Hb11-7 (400)

Hb9-1 is glyph number 1061 counted from Ha1-1, in the center of day 354, with Hb8-51 close by:

*Hb8-51 (1057) *Hb8-52 *Hb8-53 *Hb8-54 Hb9-1 Hb9-2 (1062)
353 354

Maybe they form a pair in order to put focus on the moon. They mark the end of 12 lunar months.

Hb8-29 has ordinal number 1035 counted from Ha1-1, equal to the end of day 345 (= 15 * 23).
