Betelgeuze (*88) → 10 days after Rigel, could evidently be associated with 6h and with the summer solstice south of the equator (which came 15 days after Rigel):

... In view of the almost universal prevalence of the Pleiades year throughout the Polynesian area it is surprising to find that in the South Island and certain parts of the North Island of New Zealand and in the neighboring Chatham Islands, the year began with the new Moon after the yearly morning rising, not of the Pleiades, but of the star Rigel [*78] in Orion ...

Similarly could Naos (*121 → 11 * 11) be associated with 8h and the place 28 days after the solstice, i.e. 65 days after Alcyone (*56). 65 is the palindrome of 56.

11 * 11 = 8 weeks + 5 * 13 → 513 = 19 * 27 → with 513 as the 'partial palindrome' of 531 = 18 * 29½. Thus 513 ought to be similar to 18 * 28½.
