So, you are saying that from this file

Title
P   LATTICE,NONEQUIV.ATOMS:  2
MODE OF CALC=RELA unit=ang
 10.263863 10.263863 10.263863 55.256000 55.256000 55.256000

O          NPT=  781  R0=0.00010000 RMT=    2.0000   Z:  8.000


After splitting and symmetrizing, I will arrive at this


R   LATTICE,NONEQUIV.ATOMS:  3 161_R3c

  9.519303  9.519303 26.005203 90.000000 90.000000120.000000

Now, oxygen had multiplicity 6 and now it has 1. Is this correct? Also

The original cell has 10 atoms and this one has much less and it is quite different from the original.

Professor Blaha, Israel,
The following suggestion does not work;
-----------------------------------
No. You should not run a supercell for a R structure, since this will
even with 1x1x1 create a 3 times (conventional hexagonal) cell.
Instead,
i) remove the spacegroup and change to "R"-lattice.
ii) split the 4 Fe positions into 2 and 2 (Fe1 and Fe2). This splitting
can be done in different ways (up-up-dn-dn along z; or in other ways.
Please check literature which one is correct). After nn (or sgroup) you
should have only 2 Fe positions.
-----------------------------------
The original cell is;

but if instead one changes 167 to P, but the cell parameters are changed to
 10.263863 10.263863 10.263863 55.256000 55.256000 55.256000
then the cell has all the characteristics of the original but the Fe can be split into 'up' and 'dn'

After this one can split Fe, with two Fe 'up' and two 'dn' then 'sgroup' will modify the parameters and the SG=161
the cell will look different, since one Fe will be moved to 0,0,0 since it does not have inversion symmetry
but you can symmetrize it with
****
Fe2O3.outputsgroup;
.....
Note that shift vectors for this space group are defined
only up to the vector { Z, Z, Z }.
Here Z can take any value.
****
and obtain the cell that I suggested last friday
