Undoubtedly an irregular supply of animal food would make itself felt more readily than in the case of vegetable products that can be more easily preserved. Since the alteration was made in order to avert a scarcity of food I am inclined to suspect that the order of days adopted was preferable for the practical reason that it did not cause interference with the periodi(;al market'^ At all events the year II Acatl began, with the day 2 Cipactli. On the other hand, as I will demonstrate further o...n, there wcm-c astronomical reasons of utmost importance that designati'd this day as the first of the new Epoch that began in 1507. I have defined the permanent features of the civil year; its market-days and days of rest, and also shown how the great festivals of the religious Calendar shifted — 25 — their positions at the rate of a day every four years and were rectified once in 52 years.
Let us now verify certain historical dates on the accom- panying table and ascertain what light they throw upon the positions of the religious festivals in the years 1519 to 1521.
