I have used a single asterisk (*) as a way to count days from the northern spring equinox (0h). When counting days from the southern equinox it could be convenient to use a double asterisk (**).
A blind moa with no feet follows at glyph 372 and - having elminated a back side reading continuing onto the beginning of side a - we can count to find its position as 366 days ahead from Ga1-6:

We have not, though, eliminated the possibility of nakshatra stars 'translating' the heliacal date May 30 (150) to the view from the southern latitude of Easter Island, where May could be compared with November (11 = 5 + 6):

In December 2 (336) the stars rising with the Sun in early June could be seen close to the Full Moon:
