Footnotes

  1. ^ As discussed in the main Chinese calendar article, there is considerable difficulty in establishing a basis for the chronology of the continuous year numbers. The numbers listed here are too high by 60 if an epoch of 2637 BCE is accepted. They may be too low by 1 if an epoch of 2698 BCE is accepted. That is, according to some sources, Gregorian 2006 could alternatively correspond to 4643, or perhaps 4704.
  2. ^ In any case, the correspondence between a lunisolar Chinese year and a solar Gregorian year is of course not exact. The first few months of each Gregorian year -- those preceding Chinese New Year -- belong to the previous Chinese year. For example, January 1 - January 28 of 2006 correspond to yǐyǒu 4702. Thus, it might be more precise to state that Gregorian 2006 corresponds to 4702-4703, or that continuous Chinese 4703 corresponds to 2006-2007.
