During the 100 years of the 20th Century (1901 - 2000), there were 228 solar eclipses and 13 times lunar eclipses.
There are times that the Earth gets between the Sun and the moon and causes a lunar eclipse.
That depends on what you call a "lunar cycle". -- If you mean the time it takes for the moon to return to the same place on the map of the stars, that's 27.32 days and exactly one (1.000) axial rotation of the moon. -- If you mean the time it takes for the moon to display a complete cycle of phases in the sky, that's 29.531 days, or 1.081 rotations.
A lunar calendar is dependent upon the phases of the moon and the phases of the moon is the same phases per each lunar month, as it has been for thousands of years.Ancient civilizations throughout history have only used a lunar calendar for thousands of years, which is 10x older than the roman christian "Gregorian" solar calendar that were presently using today. So no, the lunar calendar is not inaccurate. The purpose of the creation of the moon, was to tell time, as it was created to be a watch in the sky.Ecclesiasticus 43:6 (Apocrypha)He made the moon also to serve in her season for a declaration of times, and a sign of the world.

24 years times 365.24 days in a year / 29.53 days in a lunar synodic month = 296.84 lunar synodic months. Sorry, I don't know how many lunar synodic months there are in a lunar year. Someone else please finish the answer.
