Gave 1261 (and 1268, 1279) the same scrutiny as 1052

Read every East Asian entry from 1245 to 1285 in the Yau catalogue, checked the Chinese day names against the calendar, computed Brehm's tree-ring values for 1250 to 1286, and read Scifo's 1279 table. Found a Japanese two-night flickering aurora in 1263, three Korean red glows in 1260, and a Korean violet glow in October 1279. Corrected an earlier mistake: China was not silent in 1277 to 1282. Then counted how often glows were logged at all. The early 1260s were busy, the 1050s nearly empty. That flipped the ranking: the 1052 record is the more surprising coincidence, and the 1261 hunch was moved back to 'not checked yet'. Found a new puzzle: 1268, the biggest radiocarbon candidate, has no witnesses.
