In case the hostorical information about a +region is not complete, we use the Athenian name of the month. Moreover +commands and options are provided, in order to completely switch to the +"ancient way", commands such as \today. + +In the meanwhile (since 2001) I have found, through more history research, +that the way \today should be structured must be a bit different. I will +fix this in a later release. + +The package prefers to be useful (say to Greek Gentiles) than to be +historically accurate (for example a 13th month used in the ancient +calendar is not implemented here as it would not be useful). However, +even historians who are not gentiles may find interesting the information +presented in the package. + + +Antonis Tsolomitis +License type: lppl |
