Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The Ethiopian calendaring system is closely related to the Coptic Egyptian calendar. It is based on older calculations of the birth of Jesus, which results in it being approximately seven to eight years behind the Gregorian calendar. It has connections to the Julian calendar. Ethiopia's history of resisting colonization contributed to the preservation of its traditional calendar.
The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church plays a central role in maintaining and using the calendar. Religious holidays and festivals are determined by this calendar. |
