		Borana Zone, Southern Ethiopia -- Under the glare of a sun so punishing his thick blue robe hardly seems necessary, an old nomad leans hard against his knobbed walking stick and muses philosophically on his own, impending mortality.

	Archaeo Astronomy - Article in CURRENT ANTRHOPOLOGY
		The Borana calendar is a lunar-stellar calendrical system, relying on astronomical observations of the moon in conjunction with seven particular stars (or star groups).
		The earth’s rotation axis is known to precess over the centuries, and while this does not change the lunar orbital positions significantly, it does change the apparent position of the stars.
		The Borana calendrical system as described by Legesse is, therefore, a valid timekeeping system, subject to the astronomical constraints outlined here, and the pillars found in northwestern Kenya by Lynch and Robbins and preliminary dates at 300 BC could, as they suggest, represent a site used to derive that calendar.
