Abstract

The illustration of the solstitial and equinoctial sun paths that has been added to the early eighth century calendar of saint Willibrord appears as the oldest known manuscript evidence of this subject. This same type reappears as part of a pictorial series in two ca 800 manuscripts from Köln and Fulda and thereafter it is frequently to be found in computistical miscellanies
