The beginning of side
b probably refers to autumn and to illustrate
this hypothesis I
will from now on change - in the rows for the
dates - the sizes of the letters and numbers. The
heliacal stars of October should be our main
guides, not those in April:

October 22 is day 295 counted
from January 1 in a normal year.
Counted in a leap year it becomes day
296. And then we have to reduce the day number not
with 80 but with 81 in order to find the
corresponding RA date. 296 - 81 = 215 (where
Arcturus and κ Virginis were
located).
But if we should count RA
positions not from March 21 but from March 22
(to avoid the difficulty of counting from
September 20),
then we ought to count 296 - 82 = 212. This would
not have been the position of e.g. Agena (β
Centauri), that of e.g. φ Centauri (211.0).
This becomes much too
complicated. Another approch:

But we know that in a normal
year October 28 is day number 301 with the
corresponding RA day number 221, when in
rongorongo times Toliman (α
Centauri) was together with the Sun
(i.e. not visible).
Which could suit the silent
bird in Cb1-11, because normal birds sing only in
spring and summer and not when Sun was wearing his
Centaur ('Cavalry Officer') costume - in
order to
(with mouth closed) fight the dark
forces:
