The timekeeping system of the Muni (or Mursi) will challenge your preconceptions of timekeeping, and your ideas of what a calendar even is. Indeed, the Muni seem to keep good time without needing a formal calendar.
Like Pacific Islanders and the Haida, the Muni measure time by the phases of the moon, which ultimately determines when to sow and when to reap.
The year is seasonal, based on which plants are flowering, which are growing, and what animals are doing.
