If 27 should be a basic measure in the text,
then we can conclude those extra 11 glyphs hardly are
located at the end of side b because 324 = 12 * 27:

324 = 12 * 27 |
There are 12 * 27 = 324 days
from Gregorian day 314 (November 10) to
Gregorian day 273 (September 30). 365 + 273
- 314 = 324.
The 'half-submerged' glyphs can be
imagined as the result of the 'deluge' at the end of time.
The 'spout' in front at Cb14-17 can be compared with the
Mayan final in the last page of the Dresden codex:
Consequently the added 11 glyphs could be at
the beginning of side a:

In
the center of the figure in Ca1-6 there is the form of a
drop. 25 is a Saturn number and so is 11 at September 30.
The Fore and Rear Spouts in the manzil
calendar (cfr the Mayan illustration) ended after 354 (= 12 * 29½) days counted from
heliacal η Andromedae (April 1) - viz. at March 21 - while
the creator of the C text instead could have counted 12 * 27
(= 324) days from heliacal Algenib Persei - which was
visible close to the Full Moon in November 10 (314) - and
counted from where night 324 would be in September 30 (273 =
314 + 324 - 365).

The 'spout' of Aquarius was beginning
earlier in the year, apparently with Situla (κ)
at the end of February, and ending in March 15 when ω
rose with the Sun, appropriately close to the new
beginning at the March equinox:
