All these details threaten to drown us. We ought to once again look at the G tablet. Here there is no necessity to increase the positions of the stars with 1 step to be in parallel with the glyphs, because I went directly from heliacal stars to glyphs (via Aldebaran and Antares) instead of from dates to glyphs.

My assumed bridge across from C to G was from Cb1-6 to Gb7-30:

'September 25 (268)
Cb1-6 Gb7-30

But then there was also Ca1-6 to consider, the composition of which could be more 'in tune' with that in Gb7-30:

Side a
5
Ca1-6 Ca1-7 Ca1-8
Side b
5
Cb1-6 (398) Cb1-7 Cb1-8

There are plenty of feathers also in Gb1-6--8, but evidently in a vertical rather than horizontal context:

Gb1-1 Gb1-2 Gb1-3 Gb1-4 Gb1-5
Gb1-6 Gb1-7 Gb1-8
Gb1-9 Gb1-10 Gb1-11 Gb1-12 Gb1-13

In Gb1-13 the head is turned backwards as a consequence rotating 180º. Inwards eating gestures (kai) in front and at the back can be contrasted with outward 'eyes' (mata) in Cb1-13:

Cb1-9 Cb1-10 Cb1-11 (403) Cb1-12 Cb1-13 (405)
hiko o tea - ka higa te ao ko te henua ra ma te hoi atua manu rere - kua rere ga manu - ki te ragi eaha te nuku erua

In G there is a pair of manu rere figures (8 glyphs apart) and they have undulating wings, as if the birds wanted to get rid of water.

Gb1-10 clearly demonstrates how the head high up in front has disappeared. Cb1-10 clearly shows its return. Many signs are apparently inverted.

For instance has rakau in Gb1-8 not 2 upside down great feathers in front (as rakau in Cb1-6) but 2 right side up 'canoes' at left.

Counting strings emerging from rakau in Gb1-8 we will find 1 + (5 + 6) = 12. Counting emerging strings in the 'tree' in Cb1-6 we will find 1 + 10 + 1 = 12.

Earlier I assigned heliacal star positions as follows:

41
Ga7-15 (185) Ga7-16 Ga7-17 (*250) Ga7-18 Ga7-19
ψ Ophiuchi (247.7), ρ Ophiuchi (248.1), Kajam (248.3) χ Ophiuchi (248.5), She Low (248.7), Antares (249.1) Marfik, φ Ophiuchi (249.5), ω Ophiuchi (249.8), σ Herculis (250.3) τ Scorpii (250.7), Han (251.0) ζ Herculis (252.1)
Gb1-1 (231) Gb1-2 Gb1-3 (*296) Gb1-4 Gb1-5
Deneb Okab (294.0)   Albireo (295.5)   Sham (297.8)
Gb1-6 (236) Gb1-7 (*300) Gb1-8
Tarazed (299.3) Altair (300.3)  
Gb1-9 Gb1-10 (240) Gb1-11 Gb1-12 Gb1-13 (*306)
Alshain (301.6), ε Pavonis (302.3) μ Pavonis (302.7) δ Pavonis (304.4)    ξ Capricorni (305.8)

By using the same method as in C for positioning the stars and then adding those which were listed later we can rearrange stars and glyphs as follows:

Gb1-1 (231) Gb1-2 Gb1-3 (*296) Gb1-4 Gb1-5
Deneb Okab (294.0), α Vulpeculae (294.9) ν Aquilae (Ant.) (295.0), Albireo (295.5) μ Aquilae (296.3), ι Aquilae (Ant.) (296.8), κ Aquilae (Ant.) (296.9) ε Sagittae (297.1), σ Aquilae (Ant.) (297.4), Sham (297.8) β Sagittae (298.0), χ Aquilae (298.3), ψ Aquilae (298.8)
