4. The number of glyphs on the K tablet is 181, which perhaps is meant as a Sign for the distance from Aldebaran to Antares.
Evidently the K text runs in parallel with side a on the G tablet, though it is shorter and does not continue all the way to the end of side a.
The K glyphs can often be arranged in parallel with the G glyphs, but this is easily misleading because the connected stars seldom follow suit. It appears as if the meaning conveyed by the types of glyphs is not more than loosely related to specific stars.
However, there could be a few exceptions and I find Ga5-7--9 a compelling 'proof' of an underlying star structure:
Around the year 1870 π Virginis ought to have risen heliacally in day *181, a fact which should have drawn attention, especially as it was in 'September 18 - the day following Gregorian day 260 (= 20 * 13). Also in K there could be a running figure at π Virginis - given we assume 115 = *181 - 66:
The preceding henua glyph seems to indicate increasing ahead (the sign at the top) in contrast to decreasing (>) at bottom (in the past). This seems to be a sign of balance 180 days from 'March 21. Gregorian day 260 would then in K be connected with glyph 114, whereas in G it is connected with glyph 117. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
