Neglecting the severe criticisms by \textit{O. Neugebauer} in ``Astronomical Cuneiform Texts'', Vol. III, 235--240, London (1955); reprint (1983; Zbl 0523.01032), even on the basis of \textit{B. L. van der Waerden}'s treating ``Egyptian planetary tables'', the present author introduces two more discontinuities and thus -- evidently -- can obtain a seemingly better agreement of data, than van der Waerden had.
