Once again. There are only
2 manu kake glyphs in the text and the 2nd of them is
glyph 104 counted from the beginning of side a.
... When it was
evident that the years lay ready to burst into life, everyone
took hold of them, so that once more would start forth - once
again - another (period of) fifty-two years. Then (the two
cycles) might proceed to reach one hundred and four years. It
was called 'One Age' when twice they had made the round, when
twice the times of binding the years had come together ...

According to Sahagun
there were 2 calendar cycles measuring 52 'years' and
both were 'bound' when they were finished.
... Behold what
was done when the years were bound - when was reached the
time when they were to draw the new fire, when now its count
was accomplished. First they put out fires everywhere in the
country round. And the statues, hewn in either wood or
stone, kept in each man's home and regarded as gods, were
all cast into the water. Also (were) these (cast away) - the
pestles and the (three) hearth stones (upon which the
cooking pots rested); and everywhere there was much sweeping
- there was sweeping very clear. Rubbish was thrown out;
none lay in any of the houses ...
A cycle of this kind could have ended in JUNE 10,
when the Sun was at Ukdah (the Knot):

Although another guess would be
to let the cycle end when Ukdah was at the Full
Moon, with a new cycle beginning at All Hears'
Day. February 14 was day 45 = 360 / 8.
The star Al Tarf (the End) rose with the
Sun 124 days after 0h and the star Al Sharas (the Rib)
rose heliacally in day *168. The synodic cycle of Venus
was 584 nights = twice (124 + 168) = 2 * 292, which sounds
similar to 'twice fifty-two years' = 'One Age'.

In the center between Al Tarf and Al
Sharas was right ascension day (124 + 168) / 2 = 146 =
292 / 2 = 584 / 4, where Ras Elaset Australis (the
Southern Head of the Lion) rose with the Sun.
146 = 2 * 73 and 584 = 8 * 73. The
synodic cycle of Venus was locked to the year of the
Sun, because 5 * 73 = 365. There were 5 Venus cycles for
8 Sun years.
365 * 8 = 292(0) = 5 * 584.
The pair of manu kake glyphs
clearly demonstrate we should here read the text
according to the positions of the Sun. The Knot (Ukdah)
- immediatley before the Southern Head of the Lion - was
halfway to right ascension day 290 (October 17) and 145
= 5 *
29..
In Babylonian times the position of the Knot would have
been at the Sun in JUNE 10 and in JULY 7 the Sun was at
τ Leonis.
... The
month, which takes its name from Juppiter the oak-god,
begins on June 10th and ends of July 7th. Midway comes
St. John's Day, June 24th, the day on which the oak-king
was sacrificially burned alive. The Celtic year was
divided into two halves with the second half beginning
in July, apparently after a seven-day wake, or funeral
feast, in the oak-king's honour
