The Cappadocian calendar was a solar calendar that was derived from the Persian Zoroastrian calendar. It is named after the historic region Cappadocia in present-day Turkey, where it was used. The calendar, which had 12 months of 30 days each and five epagomenal days, originated between 550 and 330 BC, when Cappadocia was part of the Persian Achaemenid Empire. The Cappadocian calendar was identical to the Zoroastrian calendar; this can be seen in its structure, in the Avestan names and in the order of the months. The Cappadocian calendar reflects the Iranian cultural influence in the region. Extant evidence of the calendar dates back to Late Antiquity through the accounts of Greek astronomers, by which time it had already been adapted to the Julian calendar.

  • Le calendrier cappadocien est un calendrier solaire issu du calendrier perse zoroastrien. Il tire son nom de la Cappadoce, une région historique aujourd'hui en Turquie, où il était en usage. Le calendrier, qui compte 12 mois de 30 jours chacun et cinq jours épagomènes, nait entre 550 et 330 av. J.-C., alors que la Cappadoce fait partie de l'Empire perse achéménide. Le calendrier cappadocien est identique au calendrier zoroastrien, comme l'illustrent sa structure, les noms avestiques et l'ordre des mois, reflétant ainsi l'influence culturelle iranienne sur la région. Le calendrier est adapté au calendrier julien au cours du premier siècle av. J.-C., mais il se maintient jusqu'à l'Antiquité tardive à travers les écrits d'astronomes grecs. (fr)
  • カッパドキア暦 (英語: Cappadocian calendar)は、現在のトルコにあるカッパドキア地方で用いられた、から派生した太陽暦の一種。カッパドキアがハカーマニシュ朝の領土だった紀元前550年から紀元前330年の間に発明され、1年を12か月と5日、1か月を30日(1年=365日)としていた。カッパドキア暦はゾロアスター暦とほぼ同一の構成で、アヴェスター語による月の名前や順番も変わらない。カッパドキア暦が存在していたことは古代末期のギリシア語文献で確認できるが、この時には既にユリウス暦が施行されていた。 (ja)
