In the manzil calendar the 13 + 13 = 26 nights of Azzubra + Assarfa had no ruling star.

Acrux (α Crucis) was rising heliacally at the very beginning of this intermediate (intrometida) season and in the previous day Intrometida (ε Crucis) was rising heliacally:

The kiore glyph in *Kb2-15 should be considered together with another previous kiore glyph in Ka4-15:

Because in both glyphs the henua in front is convex. The corresponding glyphs in G have no such sign:

Maitaki in Ga5-13 could indicate the last possible day for equinox. Vero in Ga5-17 is apparently the next central glyph and it coincides with henua in *Kb2-14. Henua at Porrima in Ga5-18 has a dot in front. It was day 136 in the manzil calendar and it was the day when the Gregorian calendar reached twice this number. Ahead was Mimosa, when life would return. Counting 49 days backwards from Porrima we will in G arrive at glyph 80:
