Lunisolar calendar of Lascaux:

h 41 i 40 b 41

g 40 a 41 c 40

f 41 e 40 d 41

A year a b c d e f g h i has 41 41 40 41 40 41 40 41
days, all in all 365 days. Eight subsequent periods,
a b c d e f g h / i a b c d e f g / h i a b c d e f / ...
are a long period of 325 days and equal eleven
lunations, 30 29 30 29 30 29 30 29 30 29 30.
Nine long periods are eight years or 99 lunations.
This calendar runs for eight years, and then requires
two leap days. The ideal calendar start is midsummer
(June 21) on a full moon, represented by the red sun
horse and the white moon bull beside her in the
rotunda of the Lascaux cave.

Late Magdalenian calendar:

36 37 36 37 36 37 36 37 36 37 days, all in all 365 days.
Eight years equal 99 lunations and require two leap days.

hence SAP for all the places in the world: here,

under and above me (inverse of PAS), origin
of September

OKD 1-37 ((September 21 till October 27), time
for to build a new camp, or to restore the old one,
hence OKD for the ground plan of a tent or hut
(inverse of DKO), origin of October. The fall
equinox occurs at the begin of this period
(September 23)

NOPh 1-36 (October 28 till December 2), time of
the first snow, hence NOPh for to snow (inverse
of PhON), origin of November
