Scientific paper
Three important festivals of the Hani Nationality originated form the traditional "Ten-Month Solar Calendar". What is so called Ten-Month Calendar? That is to divide a year into two parts as "Yang year (Solar year)" and "Yin year (Lunar year)". In the Ten-Month Calendar there are 10 months in total for one year and 36 days for each month in the solar calendar system. From the Winter Solstice to the Summer Solstice (from January to May) there are slightly more than 181 days and the last day is the first New Year's day (last two days for the leap year). From the Summer Solstice to the Winter Solstice (from June to December) there are 184 days and the last four days are the second New Year's days. Two periods for New Year's days around a year is the peculiar property for the Ten-Month Calendar.
