I do not believe in coincidences without any meaning. Therefore it is necessary to return to the first item in the Koba list:

"August 16 would have been day 148 after 0h ("March 21). But 148 is in my mind firmly associated with Aldebaran, because at the time of rongorongo this star rose heliacally in day 148 counted from January 1. And 148 - 41 = 107 = 471 - 364:

Without any question mark we can assume the Mayan date which had been translated into Aug. 14, 3114 B.C. refers to °August 14 in our year 3114 B.C.

Counting with the effects of the precession I had reached Ga1-6 as a tentative position among the glyphs for where the Sun would had risen at 0h in the year 3114 B.C.

At the time of rongorongo, 70 precessional days later, Atria would have been at the Full Moon in May 30, in day 150 counted from January 1

But according to the Gregorian calendar - which did not allow for the effects of future precession - Atria would have been at the Full Moon in °May 26 (146).

And then day zero in the Mayan list was the previous day, °August 13, which means day 225 counted from °January 1 (or day 227 counted from °December 30).

148 (May 28) - 4 = 144 (°May 24) should have been at the beginning of the text on side a of the tablet, had not the precession since the time of Gregory XIII pushed Aldebaran 4 days ahead.

And similarly all the other stars in my tables would have had to be drawn back with 4 glyph positions in order to be in harmony with the Gregorian calendar. For instance would Ga1-6 have been at those stars which I have listed at Ga1-10:

Furthermore, °May 28 (148) was the day when Seven Macaw had been defeated, 35 years earlier:

... This pot depicts one of the Hero Twins (One-Ahaw in the Classic texts and One-Hunaphu in the K'iche' Popol Vuh) and a great bird who is trying to land in a huge ceiba tree heavy with fruit. This mythical bird is Itzam-Yeh, Classic prototype of Wuqub-Kaqix, 'Seven-Macaw', of Popol Vuh fame. In that story, in the time before the sky was lifted up to make room for the light, the vainglorious Seven-Macaw imagined himself to be the sun. Offended by his pride, the Hero Twins humbled him by breaking his beautiful shining tooth with a pellet from their blowgun. This pot shows One-Ahaw aiming at the bird as he swoops down to land in his tree. As Itzam-Yeh lands on his perch, the text tells us he is 'entering or becoming the sky'.

This particular 'sky-entering' is not the one mentioned in the Palenque text. It is the final event that occurred in the previous creation before the universe was remade. Before the sky could be raised and the real sun revealed in all its splendor, the Hero Twins had to put the false sun, Itzam-Yeh, in his place. If the date on this pot corresponds to that pre-Columbian event, as we believe it does, then Itzam-Yeh was defeated on 12.18.4.5.0  1 Ahaw 3 K'ank'in (May 28, 3149 B.C.). After the new universe was finally brought into existence, First Father also entered the sky by landing in the tree, just as Itzam-Yeh did ...

Itzam-Yeh (Seven Macaw) had been defeated half a precessional day earlier. This would then approximately have coincided with the stars at Ga1-8 (4 glyphs after heliacal Aldebaran in Ga1-4). Unless May 28 was meant.

To 'land in the tree' could mean to alight at the top of the World Tree.

This ought to be a place high up close to the north pole and the bent curve in Ga1-3 could therefore in a way be motivated.

(Sept. 2, 3114 B.C.) was 19 days later than (Aug. 14, 3114 B.C.) and in a way this position ought to correspond to the heliacal stars at Ga1-29, 19 glyphs later than Ga1-10 and heliacal Haedus I:
