The four seasonal festivities of the year, are presumably on the 1st day of their months. But then if they have been messing around with the calendars over time it doesn't really matter.......
The Coligny calender 'celtic' though roman lettering and found in a roman temple does not have the dates?, so presumably the Irish annals must be the right source.
Same to you Moss .
I can understand why the 4th is chosen .
The basis is midway between solstice and equinox 90 days .45 days after solstice =4th .
re imbolic at MotH, are there other irish tombs with similar orientation do you know?
Sorry ED , I'm sure it's dead obvious but MotH has me stumped .
Sorry, Mound of the hostages.
Was typing on phone.
