The last 5 glyphs in line Cb12 could be connected with the beginning of line Cb13, which has 30 glyphs, i.e. we maybe should read 35 days.
... the names [Dabih and other similar ones] undoubtedly come from Al Sa'd al Dhābi, the Lucky One of the Slaughterers, the title of the 20th manzil (of which these alphas and β were the determinant point), manifestly referring to the sacrifice celebrated by the heathen Arabs at the heliacal rising of Capricorn ... Before the reform of Julius Caesar February 23 was the end of the cycle of the regular year with 350 days: ... Thus the regular old Roman year ended with Februarius 23 and it was 350 nights long, 25 fortnights. Then followed 5 extra nights, or as the Romans saw it 5 + 1 = 6 nights in order to include March 1, the first day of the new regular year. This means the last 4 months of the year contained 3 * 29 + 23 = 110 regular nights, or as the Romans saw it 110 + 1 = 111 regular nights, with 5 extra nights immediately before the last regular night ... Saad Al Thabib does not end here, but in manzil day 285 (= 365 - 80).
At Cb13-20 I have tried with March 1, but there is a faint possibility the date is meant to be February 29.
