Xanthe Terra is a real name for a real place on Mars! Any resemblance to any pseudonymous webmasters is wholly unintentional.

As requested, the Attic converter code. https://satyrs.eu/source/for/app/attic.js Bit of a bodge, but it was one of those projects where once you confirm it works you raise your hands to the sky in relief and swear solemnly never to look at it again.

The actual displaying of the dates is spread thin across my nightmare spaghetti of internationalisation code, so that’s a bring-your-own-beer affair for now! `signedDate` is positive for waxing, negative for waning, and 0 for the hene kai nea, month numbers are 0-indexed from Hecatombæon up, and years and olympiads are 1-indexed.

Living in the UK i have the luxury of always being pretty close to UTC so also this might break terribly if your time zone is far away from either Greenwich or Greece and will *definitely* break horribly if you are in the southern hemisphere.

This is awesome! It's one of those things that make programming worth it. I'll figure it out and maybe port it to C so I can have a nice companion for my planetary hours program. Thank you, divine Xanthe!

Oh, and don't worry about it breaking. Living in the southern hemisphere, I'm used to this kind of stuff breaking... but the indomitable human spirit always prevails.

Have fun with the moon calculations then! Last time i tried calculating astronomical positions myself (read: last week) i came to the conclusion that i should turn off the computer, give up, and back away slowly, lol
