A few clarifications on my last post seem in order:
...


In the end, we are left with two sets of four directions (the eight sequences of glpyhic pointers). Therefore, to arrive at 72 Latin letters, each of the eight gates would have to be the entrance to nine Latin letters. Indeed, the SSM lends support to just such an arrangement:



As you can see, there are eight groups of nine letters, with each group separated by a dot. There's an extra dot after the first letter which could indicate a movement of one space to the right after each loop around the circle, or, just as likely, that we also need to work in a backwards direction.

N • t • oexoraba • laygtiyst • algaonosu • larycetosp • fyomemana • renugarel • atedatono • naoyleyot
N • 1 •    8         •       9     •      9        •    10         •      9           •         9     •      9        •     9

There are 8 groups and most of them have nine letters, but two of them clearly do not. Some people might read this as 9 groups, with three groups that do not have 9 letters (since the first one after the capital-N has one).
