The Scriptures say that the Galleon Meadow is where the Thirteen Tribes began their respective journeys away from Kobol. Twelve went on to form the Twelve Colonies of Kobol, while the 13th went in a different direction to Earth.
The meadow's exact location is known, and it is the nearest landmark on the path to the Tomb of Athena. From the Meadow one can see the High Road, a rocky ridge leading in the direction of the tomb.
