Gregorian/Julian Dating?
editThe Laurentinian codex is quoted by "On the first day of the month of May, on the day of the Saint Prophet Jeremiah, on Wednesday[...]" which would perfectly fit the eclipse in Gregorian time. In Julian calendar (which I think was in place in the 1185 Rus), it should have been April 24th. Can anyone clarify on that? Is the codex quoted in a translated and date-transduced edition? --178.12.116.78 (talk) 20:10, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
