These anniversaries have a year, season, or approximate period in the source. They are listed here without assigning an exact day.
A shared calendar of observances, traditions, and anniversaries, with source references preserved for each entry. Colors follow the priority given in the source registers: major, notable, or minor. When both calendars record the same observance, or a milestone anniversary falls on its own annual day, the records are combined into one entry and listed together in the event details. Religious dates, approximate dates, and research projections retain the qualifications in the spreadsheets; Islamic dates may vary with local moon sighting. Downloads include only dated entries in the current view and filters.
