Hi Drew,
The simple explanation is the equinox idea. I looked in Stellarium and found that on April 6, 2581 BCE (-2580 in Stellarium), there was 12 hours between sunrise and sunset:
Immediately prior to sunrise, the Giant, the boat, the net, the fish and the Hippopotamus (Thoeris) are in the sky. This doesn't tell us the year is right, but it does seem to point to the equinox idea.
