A brief annotation

“The coin “Slavic Calendar” will take you to the world of rites and traditional beliefs of the people who lived according to the rhythm of nature. The Slavic year began in March with the spring arrival. The summer and winter solstices, as well as the spring and autumn equinox, determined the count of time.
