From the date Al Tuwaibe' 1 to Murzim 1 (ruled by Canis Major) there are 3 * 13 = 39 days. A triplet of manu rere who have lost their eyes follow the triplet above, but first there is a group with 5 glyphs and a Rei in its center, in July 1:

The powerful hakaua in Cb4-3 seems to have worked because 3 days later there is a ua with a mata in front.

The last day of the manzil ruled by Aldebaran is July 8. The heliacal rising of Aldebaran was in May 28 (day 148 in an ordinary year). July 9 (day 190 in an ordinary year) - 148 = 42 days. Sirius rose in June 30 (day 181 in an ordinary year), i.e. 181 - 148 = 33 days later than Aldebaran. But there are 39 days from Al Tuwaibe' to Murzim. The heliacal date for the star ruling Murzim ought to be July 6 (in an ordinary year), i.e. Wezen (δ Canis Majoris). 187 - 181 = 6.
Wezen marks the spine of the Great Dog, wheras Sirius is his nose:
We should remember that by counting forward in the G text we have indeed earlier located Sirius and Wezen 6 days apart:

Should we imagine the powerful hakaua in Cb4-3 as a sign for Sirius, then we should look for Aldebaran in glyph 466 - 33 = 433:

But a star visible close to full moon in June 30 is located at the other end of the sky, a star which rose heliacally around day 181 + 182 = 363.
363 - 80 = 283 and 283 - 64 = 219. The searched for star could be Vega, which in G possibly is illustrated as the broad curve at top left in Ga8-15. Vega is like Sirius a very bright star:
