document | Lumbard language ethnomathematica (Lombardia-E3) season rituals and a female majordomo.

L’edificio matematico del calendario campestre è facilmente memorizzabile con i (pochi) momenti rituali durante l’anno, cioè (1a) il capodanno solare, (1b) il capodanno bisestile, (1c) il capodanno stagionale, (2a.2b.2c) le tre camporelle, (3a) la fine anno stagionale, (3b) la fine anno solare. Si noti che ogni momento rituale è preceduto e comandato da un “majordomo” femmina, vale a dire dal Totem di santa Teresa, Caterina, Agnesa, Merenziana e Walburg, dalla Nunciata, dalla Madelèna e dall’Ottava.
