| lunar calendar | восточный календарь any dating system based on a year consisting of synodic months–i.e., complete cycles of phases of the Moon. In every solar year (or year of the seasons), there are about 12.37 synodic months. Therefore, if a lunar-year calendar is to be kept in step with the seasonal year, a periodic intercalation (addition) of days is necessary. The Sumerians were probably the first to develop a calendar based entirely on the recurrence of lunar phases. Each Sumero-Babylonian month began on the first day of visibility of the new Moon. Although an intercalary month was used periodically, intercalations (intercalation) were haphazard, inserted when the royal astrologers realized that the calendar had fallen severely out of step with the seasons. Starting about 380 BC, however, fixed rules regarding intercalations were established, providing for the distribution of seven intercalary months at designated intervals over 19-year periods. Greek astronomers also devised rules for intercalations to coordinate the lunar and solar years. It is likely that the Roman republican calendar was based on the lunar calendar of the Greeks. Lunar calendars remain in use among certain religious groups today. The Jewish calendar (Jewish religious year), which supposedly dates from 3,760 years and three months before the Christian Era (BCE) is one example. The Jewish religious year begins in autumn and consists of 12 months alternating between 30 and 29 days. It allows for a periodic leap year and an intercalary month. Another lunar calendar, the Muslim (Muslim calendar), dates from the Hegira–July 15, AD 622, the day on which the prophet Muammad began his migration from Mecca to Medina. It makes no effort to keep calendric and seasonal years together. Britannica (Alexander Demidov) |
