Once upon a time, I had math in school. I also moonlighted as a graduate student in history.
I have brought both to bear on this. So BE AFRAID. :)
No spoilers I can think of. A whole lot of speculation, however.
( A long time ago, in the Galactica-verse... )
Note that this does NOT get into any of my Cylon/spiritual spec because that's a bit more spoilery.
But I do think that EoJ/Rapture should be taken as the canon point of departure for the 13th tribe. That's when RDM was setting up the Five, and is presumably the date which everything written afterward is going to use.
