Bb11.1 There is a curve at the top of Bb10-42. At a solstice the Sun moves slowly in a straight path, at an equinox he is swift like an arrow - which path is curved (he vari). ... The dream soul came to Rangi Meamea and looked around searching. The dream soul spoke: 'Here at last is level land where the king can live.' She named the place 'Rangi Meamea A Hau Maka O Hiva.' The mountain she named 'Peke Tau O Hiti A Hau Maka O Hiva.' The dream soul moved along a curve from Peke Tau O Hiti to the mountain Hau Epa, which she named 'Maunga Hau Epa A Hau Maka O Hiva.' The dream soul went to the other side of the mountain Hau Epa. As soon as the dream soul looked around, she saw the sand (beach), which was very white and light. She remained there and explored everything. After she had looked around carefully, the dream soul of Hau Maka said, 'Ah! This is the place that will serve as a residence for the king.' ...

In the G text the curve at the top seems to be associated with Menkaure and the Pillar of Exit (Ga7-33), then evolving to June 29 (the day before Sirius). In ancient Egypt the spring was connected with the waters of the Nile arriving from the south, i.e. delayed with around a quarter compared to north of the Mediterranean and Mesopotamia: *123 (July 22, 22 / 7 → π) - *41 (Beltaine, May 1) = *82 days:
Another observation is the pair of toga glyphs preceding Bb10-42 which is repeated in singular form after Acrux:
In September 25 the Full Moon would (ideally) be in the night after Acrux. I.e. the date September 25 should correspond to the date March 25 north of the equator, because September (9) - March (3) = 6 months and March 25 (84) was the Julian equinox.
