The Ethiopian calendar is based on the ancient Coptic calendar, which dates back to the time of the pharaohs. It has twelve months of 30 days each, with an additional 13th month of five or six days, depending on whether it is a leap year or not. The Ethiopian New Year falls on September 11th or 12th in the Gregorian calendar.
November 10th in the Ethiopian calendar corresponds to the month of Hidar. This month is known for the end of the rainy season and the beginning of the harvest season in Ethiopia. It is a time of celebration and thanksgiving for the bountiful harvest that sustains the people throughout the year.
