12 month Calendar, Afrika's gift to the world

It is estimated that, as early as 300 BC, the Borana/Oromo people of the upper Nile, in today's Ethiopia, had a highly advanced 12 month calendar, based on a sophisticated system of astronomy. The ability to create and interpret the calendar was the domain of specialists known as the Ayantu.  See links below:
