The thai-Buddhist calendar starts from the he year Buddha is thought to have died. Pretty cool! Any other calendars that you follow?

Feels silly to have months in first place. Could have been just <year>-<day of year>.
In theory, however the ability to break up the year into smaller chunks is very handy for our monkey brains. Small number easy, big number hard.
