CALENDAR OF BULGARS
(citation) |
To calculate in the Bulgarian 12-year cycle calendar the
current year of a Gregorian calendar, deduct 3 from the last, then
divide the result into 12. The remainder of the division will be a sequential number of
the year in the Bulgarian cycle, and an exact division means the 12-th year of a cycle.
