The

stars

(201)
up

(221),
i.e.

in

interval

- 80

to

August 11 (223) |
In my new little table I have chosen the RA day for Alterf instead of that for ξ Cancri (although this star is rising earlier), because the fraction (.4) agrees with the fractions for Castor and for the Beehive. There are 30.0 days from Castor to Alterf (= 7.0 + 23.0).
The
5th
manzil
(Al
Dhirā',
the
Forearm),
ruled
by
Castor
and
Pollux,
ought
to
have
ended
with
July
28,
because
in
July
29
the
Beehive
rose
with
the
Sun
and
this
ought
to
be
the
beginning
of
the
6th
manzil
(Al
Nathrah,
the
Gap
in
the
Lion's
mane).
The
7th
manzil
(Al
Tarf,
the
Glance)
could
have
started
with
the
heliacal
rising
of ξ
Cancri
(137.8)
in
August
6
(because
the
star
Al
Tarf,
λ
Leonis,
did
not
rise
with
the
Sun
until
in
RA
day
143.4).
However,
not
only
the
fraction
(.4)
but
also
the
name
of
the
manzil
points
at a
beginning
in
August
11,
when
Al
Tarf
rose
with
the
Sun.
But
Wikipedia
has
dates
which
seem
to
be
quite
irrelevant.
For
instance
is
the
date
Alhena
8
(74)
assigned
to
July
29.
I
think
the
correct
heliacal date
should
have
been
Al
Nathrah
1
(or
rather
Al
Nathrah
0
because
time
does
not
count
until
the
'hour'
is
full).
The
nakshatra
stars
-
rising
with
the
Sun
from
January
20
(385)
up
to
and
including
February
9
(405)
-
were
in
the
interval
from
RA
day
385
- 80
=
305
up
to
and
including
RA
day

Although Gredi was rising a day before Dabhi I have above chosen to redmark Dabih (and count from this star) because of the manzil name.
The last glyph in line Cb5 corresponds to August 9 (221) and its nakshatra date should have been 221 + 184 = 405 (February 9). I think this nakshatra date ought to have been be Al Sa’d al Bula' 11 (= 405 - 394) - or more strictly according to the order of time: Al Sa’d al Bula' 10.
But Wikipedia has Al Baldaah 12.
Perhaps my new manzil dates (deduced from Allen's information) can be put in parallel with the glyphs on side b of Mamari. My suggested date Al Sa'ad al Su'ud 1 (or rather 0) for February 10 coincides with the 1st glyph in line Cb6.
