Fact is that the table below summarizes two ways to count to ika hiku, either from the onset of winter solstice (*Qb5-17) and 300 days forward up to and including the day with the first ika hiku (Qb2-15), or from the 1st day of the calendar (*Qb5-35--36) and 295 days forward up to and including the second ika hiku (Qb2-24):

 
144 452
*Qb5-17 (1) *Qb5-18 Qb2-15 Qb2-16 (454)
300 days
126 460
*Qb5-35 (1) *Qb5-36 Qb2-23 Qb2-24 (462)
295 days

But there is another alternative to consider. We can begin to count from the 'Rogo day' (day 363), instead of from the onset of winter solstice (*Qb5-17):

 
*Qb5-17 *Qb5-18 *Qb5-19 *Qb5-20 *Qb5-21 *Qb5-22
360 361 362
*Qb5-23 *Qb5-24 *Qb5-25 *Qb5-26 *Qb5-27 *Qb5-28
363 300 + 64 = 364 365
*Qb5-29 *Qb5-30 *Qb5-31 *Qb5-32 *Qb5-33 *Qb5-34
366 367 368
*Qb5-35 *Qb5-36 *Qb5-37 *Qb5-38
369 370

This way we will have a nice 70 days to the end of side b:

 
138
*Qb5-23 (1) *Qb5-24
70

And on side a we can then adjust the end to be with Qb2-11--12:

 
448
Qb2-11 Qb2-12 Qb2-13 Qb2-14 Qb2-15 Qb2-16
225 226 227

By this method we have once again reached 295 days.

 

The last of the imagined structures rings true. A little fish with maro is rising (reva). And I discover that surely Qb2-12 is a koti glyph. I had not earlier registered any koti glyph for Q. Other signs also confirm this is Hua Reva, and I decide to add:

By this method we have once again reached 295 days. Qb2-12 has a sign of koti (the bottom part) and a little fish is rising (reva) - the location certainly is Hua Reva.

This is an important discovery, and comments follow here.
