200 days
Tzec		Pax

Tzec is number 5 and Pax number 16, i.e. there are 200 days between these months. I have chosen to describe it this way rather than using the ordinal subtraction formula (16 - 5 = 11 and 20 = 11 = 220). A third alternative is to include Tzec and Pax, in which case the number of days when sun is present will be 240 days.

11 months cannot be right, I think. We have to chose between 10 and 12 months for 'summer. An ancient Polynesian would without hesitation say 10 months for the sun and 8 for the moon.

Rutua te pahu, the sound of drums, Metoro said, at the beginning of side b of Tahua:

Ab1-1	Ab1-2	Ab1-3	Ab1-4
Te hoea - rutua te pahu - rutua te maeva - atua rerorero - atua ata tuu
Ab1-5	Ab1-6	Ab1-7	Ab1-8
atua ata Rei - tuu te Rei hemoa	i ako te vai		Ko te maitaki - ko te maharoga
Ab1-9	Ab1-10	Ab1-11	Ab1-12
hetuu e roia	-	e ragi huhuki	eaha ia

The 'flaring top' sign in Tzec and Pax reminds me about the pito glyph type:

Tzec	pito	Pax
monkey	navel	broken drum

And the Pax glyph has a structure resembling that in Uo, with a horizontal division separating the top (sky) and bottom (earth) parts:

Pax	Uo

In Pax there is a little circular sign inside a 'mountain' in the 'earth' department, and in Uo sun is still behind bars. The top department has 1 black 'pillar' in Uo, 2 in Pax. Pax is located as number 16 and Uo as number 2, a difference of 14 months. 14 * 20 = 280. 364 - 280 = 84. Pax seems to serve as a 'henua ora' both for sun and moon.

Sun is absent, I guess, during 165 days and moon during 84 nights (according to the imagined model).

After all these preliminaries I ought to document Pax in the same way as the five earlier months:

	16 Pax
	"... Yucatec pax means 'broken, disappeared', and Quiché paxih means, among other things, 'split, divide, break, separate' ..."
The 5 nameless days (of course between the old and new tun years), Tap, according to the Kanhobal, is the 18th and last month for them. They are nameless, I think, because to give them names would bring them out into the light, in a way to make them possible to understand.
"The patron of Pax is represented by an anthropomorphized feline head [picture at top left from a monument], rather resembling the head of the patron of Uo, accompanied by a representation of a paw. Thompson suggests it may stand for chac mol 'giant paw', a name for the jaguar. He points out that Landa puts a feast to the god Cit Chac Coh 'Great Father Puma' in this month, but he tends to regard it as coincidental ..." I guess the chac mol 'giant paw' is the same concept as the glyph type vae (which - I have concluded - marks the end of the year in the rongorongo calendars):
I cannot see that Uo illustrates a jaguar head (which Kelley suggests), but I can see a jaguar head in Pop: Pop Uo Pax There may be black jaguars all through the months when sun is absent, I guess.
The month name (Pax) and month glyph both indicate the season of log drums (presumably for communicating with the powers above), because pax means 'disappeared' (referring, I think, to the old sun) and a new one must now be released from the gods. Hopefully a 'puma' will come, a 'sun cat' which does not like the water, but rather climbs high like the monkeys.
