 Calendars and their History
Years are counted from the Saka Era; 1 Saka is considered to begin with the vernal equinox of A.D. The reformed Indian calendar began with Saka Era 1879, Caitra 1, which corresponds to A.D. 1957 March 22.
Years are classified according to the number of days in the year (see Table 3.1.1).
However, a count of years from an initial epoch is the most successful way of maintaining a consistent chronology.
