27. What's the Difference

A noteworthy divergence crops up in the analysis of Line 16 The 12th, one god was seen with the other, sunrise to moonset: 1° 30'.

Translated in modern terms: On the morning of the 12th (Mar 26, -566), a sliver of the moon was visible in the western sky as the sun rose in the east. Then the moon set 6 minutes later (1° 30').

However, TheSky software shows the moon was no longer in the sky at sunrise on the morning of Mar 26th. It had set 3 minutes prior to sunrise rather than 6 minutes afterwards - a difference of 9 minutes.
