Calendar

When it is kept

The days in the year its record gives. A day, not a date: it says nothing about when the observance began.

What this means

The days in the year Wikidata records for October Horse, each in the calendar it names: a month of another calendar is shown as recorded and never converted. Two days are two statements — often two traditions’ days — and are not joined into a span. It does not imply when the festival began, or that every tradition keeping it keeps this day.

Where

The nearest this collection holds, measured between recorded coordinates.

What this means

Computed from coordinates, not stated by any source. Nearness is geometry, not a connection: two sites a kilometre apart may never have shared a worshipper, a tradition or a century. Where either coordinate is recorded only to a district, the distance is rounded and says “about”.

What this means

Listed because they are practices in Greek and Roman, as this one is — not because either record names the other. Being on the same shelf is not a connection, an influence or a sequence.
