With heliacal Taurus at the beginning of side a and with 1 day for each glyph the end of side a should become congruent with the end of the Gregorian calendar year, though with the 4 last glyphs corresponding to the precession since the time of Gregory XIII:
Day 227 at Ga8-24 may have meant the birth (hanau) of a new cycle (because 22 / 7 = 3.14). In rongorongo times this was 291 days beyond 0h. Day 290 was when Al Baldah rose with the Sun. Hevelius has put Al Baldah (π) at the back of the head of the Archer:
With the text beginning far in the past, when 0h was at the Hyades Gate, it would not be possible to put the heliacal stars hand in hand with the current stations of the Sun. Precession had separated the Sun from the significant stars. The path of the current Sun should therefore not be the proper view for side a of the tablet. The text was beginning at the beginning of time, when the horns of the Bull were at one end of the year and the horns of the Goat at the other.
227 was the universal Sign for π (i.e. half the circumference of a circle). The number of glyphs on the G tablet is 471 = 1½ * 314. Counting 261 - 104 = 157 = ½ * 314 reveals the possibility to use 208 (July 27) = 8 * 26 days as a measure:
