They took their provisions with them, carrying them on their shoulders, went on, and reached Te Pou. They made camp and slept in Te Pou on the tenth day of the month of July ('Anakena').

... When the Pope rearranged the day for spring equinox from number 84 ('March 25) to number 80 (ºMarch 21) the earlier Julian structure was buried, was covered up (puo). At the same time the Pope deliberately avoided to correct the flow of Julian calendar days for what he may have regarded as 4 unneccesary leap days prior to the Council of Nicaea. Thus his balance sheet for days was in order. The day numbers counted from the equinox were increased with 4 and this was equal to allowing the 4 'unneccessary' leap days to remain in place. But he had moved spring equinox to a position which was 4 days too early compared to the ancient model ...

These '4 unneccessary leap days' (prior to the Council of Nicaea) were equal in number to the precessional distance in time between the Pope and the time of rongorongo. The Gregorian calendar could therefore be easily understood by the Easter Islanders. The Pope had created a 'crooked calendar' but since his time the precession had fixed it ...

The correct days for 10h and 22h should have been at heliacal Regulus respectively at heliacal Sadalmelik.

Then they all got up, carried their provisions on their shoulders, went straight ahead, and followed the path of the dream soul of Hau Maka. They came to Hua Reva and said, This is Hua Reva A Hau Maka!

They went on and reached Akahanga, took a look at it and looked around. They said: This is it! and gave the name Akahanga A Hau Maka.

They went on and came to Hatinga Te Kohe and saw that in this place the kohe plant had been broken. They all said, Here it is, the kohe plant, troop of young men! This kohe plant had been broken by the feet of the dream soul and therefore they gave the name Hatinga Te Kohe A Hau Maka.

They went on and came to Roto Iri Are. Again they said, There it is, Roto Iri Are and named (the place) Roto Iri Are A Hau Maka.

They went on and reached Tama. They looked around and said, This is Tama. They gave the name Tama, an evil fish (he ika kino), a very long nose (He ihu roroa).

Again they went on and came to One Tea. They saw it, looked around, and gave the name One Tea A Hau Maka.

Then they went on and came to Hanga Takaure. There they gave the name Hanga Takaure A Hau Maka. They made camp and rested at the Bay of Flies for a week (etahi pohitu).
