The Sting (Lesath) of the Scorpion should be located at its tail (υ) and not at its head (v). And - significantly - the heliacal star 48 Persei had been given the letter υ. For from v Persei to υ Persei there were *61 - *55 = *6 right ascension days and v Persei was located in the same day as Tau-ono (the 6 stars in the Pleiades reappearing in the night before Alcyone, Pleione, and Atlas).
