The moon has no black interval between her 'morning' and 'evening' phases. That may explain why koti cannot be used at full moon. Likewise, there presumably is no black interval at Ab1-37:

Ca7-24 Ab1-37

We notice a little piece missing at left in ihe tau, cfr at Mercury:

Ca3-8 (59)

Boanerges. Now we know for sure. Jupiter is their father, Mars is St. George (killing the dragon of night), and Mercury is St. John who 'baptizes' the earth.

Side a of C is beginning with a sequence of 18 glyphs, the last one of which also is a kiore-henua:

Ca1-1 Ca1-2 Ca1-3 Ca1-4 Ca1-5 Ca1-6
Ca1-7 Ca1-8 Ca1-9 Ca1-10 Ca1-11 Ca1-12
Ca1-13 Ca1-14 Ca1-15 Ca1-16 Ca1-17 Ca1-18

The parallels with H should be noticed:

Ha1-1 possibly is corresponding to Ca1-8, coming at the beginning of 7 glyphs instead of at the end of 8 glyphs.
Ha1-1
Ha1-2 Ha1-3 Ha1-4 Ha1-5 Ha1-6 Ha1-7

In C then follows a pair of poor looking manu rere, while in H there is a pair of honu:

Ha1-8 Ha1-9 Ha1-10 Ha1-11 Ha1-12 Ha1-13
-
Ca1-7 Ca1-9 Ca1-10 Ca1-11 Ca1-12

Ha1-12 maybe has his counterpart in the pair Ca1-16--17:

Ca1-13 Ca1-14 Ca1-15 Ca1-16 Ca1-17 Ca1-18
Ha1-14 Ha1-15 Ha1-16 Ha1-17 Ha1-18 Ha1-19

In C then follows 29 glyphs ending with the 2nd kiore-henua on side a (Ca2-23). Yet, already at Ca1-25 a similar kiore-henua ora appears:

Ca1-19 Ca1-20 Ca1-21 Ca1-22 Ca1-23 Ca1-24 Ca1-25
Ca1-26 Ca2-1 Ca2-2 Ca2-3 Ca2-4
Ca2-5 Ca2-6 Ca2-7

29 = 7 + 22. First there is night, then comes the light. Ca2-4 is a midnight henua, maybe corresponding to Ha1-6. Ca2-4 is the 5th glyph from Ca1-26 (the first glyph beyond the measurement straight vertical line in Ca1-25) and Ha1-6 is the 5th glyph from Ha1-2 (the first glyph beyond the 'spooky' Ha1-1).

Ca2-8 Ca2-9 Ca2-10 Ca2-11 Ca2-12
Ca2-13 Ca2-14 Ca2-15 Ca2-16 Ca2-17 Ca2-18
Ca2-19 Ca2-20 Ca2-21 Ca2-22 Ca2-23 (49)

49 = 7 * 7 = 18 + 29, sun respectively moon.

Ca1-18 Ca1-25 Ca2-23 (49)

25 = 5 * 5 and 49 = 7 * 7. Ca2-23 (where 2 * 23 = 46) has a kiore with only a small mouth, presumably he is in the waning phase.

First, on side a of C, comes a square of 'fire' (25). The comes 5 glyphs ending with a midnight henua. 25 + 5 = 30, a new 'day' is beginning. 3 + 16 = 19:

Ca2-5 Ca2-6 Ca2-7
Ca2-8 Ca2-9 Ca2-10 Ca2-11 Ca2-12
Ca2-13 Ca2-14 Ca2-15 Ca2-16 Ca2-17 Ca2-18
Ca2-19 Ca2-20 Ca2-21 Ca2-22 Ca2-23 (49)
