3. The 'Eridu' glyph (Ga1-29, glyph number 94 counted from Sirrah) seems to be located close to winter solstice on Easter Island (i.e. close to summer solstice north of the equator), and the Eridu constellation in the Babylonian calendar has been drawn close to summer solstice:

The city of Eridu was the southernmost of 32 Sumerian cities. The sacred geography of Sumer - if such a concept existed - ought to have put an Eridu constellation just before summer solstice (beyond which Sun had to return because of the 'sea' in front).

Eridu was also the oldest of the Sumerian cities, and maybe it was therefore the first of them 'to reach the sea' - corresponding to the end of Easter Island in the southwestern corner. The Rooster constellation could explain why a rooster was called for in the last words of Hotu Matua:

... The people (mahingo) listened as he spoke. The king called out to his guardian spirits (akuaku), Kuihi and Kuaha, in a loud voice: 'Let the voice of the rooster of Ariana crow softly. The stem with many roots (i.e., the king) is entering!' The king fell down, and Hotu A Matua died ...

In the same position in the round Dendera zodiac there is, I think, a lapwing (rechyt), cfr at Kara Etahi.

But the 'Eridu' glyph in G seems to be on the other side of the solstice.

Ana-varu, 'a pillar to sit by', was the 8th Tahitian star pillar, and the Eridu constellation sign shows someone sitting down.

A quarter later comes Phaed, the 9th pillar (of exit), which we can put in parallel with glyph number 180 - 64 = 116, and the following Rei could initiate next season (which we can compare with Rei in Ga1-30, which also, presumably, is initiating a new season):

17
	Ga5-4	Ga5-5 (116)	Ga5-6	Ga5-7 (*182)	Ga5-8	Ga5-9

autumn equinox	0		winter solstice	92		spring equinox	186
Sirrah	1	1	Sirius	102	13	Spica (3)	204	24
Polaris (10)	28	27	Procyon (7)	116	14	Arcturus (6)	216	12
Alcyone	57	29	Alphard (5)	143	27	Toliman	222	6
Aldebaran (2)	69	12	Dubhe (4)	168	25	Antares (1)	250	28
Rigel	79	10	Phaed (9)	180	12	summer solstice	276
Alnilam	85	6
Betelgeuze (8)	89	4

Perhaps - one could think - we should count the day numbers from tamaiti in Gb7-3:

Gb7-1	Gb7-2 (413)	Gb7-3 (1*)	Gb7-4

It would decrease the day numbers with 414 - 409 = 5 days, and Ga1-29 would be at day number 89, i.e. no longer on the wrong side of the solstice:

Ana-muri - Aldebaran		18	Ana-varu - Betelgeuze		4	Tropus - Tejat Prior
Ga1-3 (4)	Ga1-4 (*64)		Ga1-23 (24)	Ga1-24 (*84)		Ga1-29 (*89)	Ga1-30

I have chosen to use the alternative name Tropus - it is more appropriate. Allen:

"Bassus and Hyginus said Tropus, Turn, referring to the apparent turningpoint of the sun's course at the summer solstice, which now is more precisely marked by the star y just eastward from η; and Flamsteed also had Τρόπος."
