About Juno Covella:
(from the back cover)
"This Calendar is called after Juno, who was invoked as Juno Covella, of the New Moon, when the Nones of each month were announced (calantur), by the Roman Pontiff. (Varro).
The Calendar gives details of the Goddesses presiding over, or connected with, the various divisions of time.
Sections are devoted to the Goddesses of:
I. Chronological Eras;
II. The Year;
III. The Fixed Calendar;
IV. The Moveable Calendar;
V. The Days of the Month;
VI. the Days of the Week;
VII. The Hours of the Day.
Material for the Calendar is drawn from a variety of sources. These include the traditional scriptures such as the Babylonian and Egyptian Ritual Texts, the Vedas, the Bible, the Zend-Avesta, the Kojiki, and the Nihongi, the Koran, the works of Classical writers including Hesiod, Aratus, Varro, Ovid, Ptolemy, and also the late Roman Calendars of Philocalus and Silvius.
Among rarer or lesser known books are the Institutes of the Empoeror Akbar, Dufresnoy's Chronological Tables and the Abbe de Montfaucon's Supplement to Antiquities Explained. Hitherto unpublished materials include MSS, by the late Ross Nichols, Chosen Chief of the OBOD, and by Hugh Gibbs, Igaehinudoequa, Blue Holly Clan Chief of the Cherokee Nation, a FOI member."
